New Lure Idea - A Banjo Senko.

[Avalonjohn44]

It will be like a Banjo Minnow, and a Senko. And you can only rig it on a wiggle rig with a Flying Lure hook.

Ya, but what's the best rod and reel for it?  Which fluorocarbon line would you use? 

[RobE]

I think it was Kristofferson that said.. "Don't ever cuss that fiddle, boy, unless you wan't that fiddle out of tune."

I don't recall Kris doing a song about banjos but...

[Thefishy1]

It works best with a left handed rod or the Instant Fisherman.  ;D

[bass or bass ?]

I recommend braided flourocarbon line, 150 pound test.

The banjo anything is a poor idea, sorry just my opinion.

Ya, but what's the best rod and reel for it? Which fluorocarbon line would you use?

I would say an Ugly Stick with a Wave Spin real.

[IwillChooseFreeWill]

nah the wally world shakespeare $6 6' Medium Light rod and Diahatsu spincast mini prespooled with 4.5 lb metric line

[SDoolittle]

I would recommend one of those  Roland Martin Rocket rods for that lure.

[breakyourrod]

The best setup would be a spinning reel fished upside down for that bait.

[Fishing Rhino]

I know from years of field trials, the absolute best rod to use is Ron Popeil's Pocket Fisherman.

And, if one Banjo Senko is good two is better.

My favorite set up is an umbrella rig with several. The rig is known as duelling banjo senkos.

For line, use either lead core (is that still available?), or monel wire line to get it deep.

The good ol' hay baler twist works well on all wire line.  It's a "knot" all fishermen should have in their repertoire of knots.

How to tie a Bale on a Vertical Baler

On standard Vertical Balers, Single Loop Baling Wire is used to tie off completed paper bales and metal bales to hold compressed material together for handling and shipment. The following instructional steps to do this are very similar on most Vertical Balers.

1. Always wear eye protection when handling Baling Wire. Only trained personnel should operate any machine.

2. Feed one end of wire thru the slots on bottom of platen or plunger of baler. It does not matter which end is first.

3. Go to back of machine and loop or feed end of wire around bale and thru the matching bottom floor slots so both ends are now in front of baler.

4. Feed end of wire thru pre-made looped end and pull out excessive slack. Some slack is OK as Bale will expand to tighten upon ejecting.

5. Bend back free end of wire against loop and wrap it around itself 3-4 times.

6. Continue steps 2-5 for each designed wire slot.

7. Makes sure main door is open fully and connect ejector chains or cables provided with the machine to platen in back of baler. (Note: Some machines may do this automatically.)

8. Place forklift, pallet, or pallet jack in front of bale chamber to catch bale.

9. Stand clear from front of baler while pressing the "up" or "eject" button. Platen or plunger will raise causing bale to roll out of chamber.

10. Remove bale from front of chamber and make sure all wire slots are clear in baler.

11. Remove ejector chains or cables from platen and ensure they are laying straight in floor grooves.

12. Close Baler door and begin baling next bale.
