Otter17 Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 For anyone who has used these, what is the appropriate size ring for each size: 4” Senko and the 5” Senko Thanks much! Quote
Otter17 Posted May 5, 2021 Author Posted May 5, 2021 This is the chart Rapala had sent me. I’ll see how they workout. 1 Quote
Big Swimbait Posted May 5, 2021 Posted May 5, 2021 The chart was pretty accurate for me. Of course other brands of baits differ in thickness so as cheap as they are, I bought a pack of each size. I really like the option of rigging horizontal for wacky and vertical for Neko with the same ring. 1 Quote
Fishin Dad Posted May 6, 2021 Posted May 6, 2021 Has anyone used these enough to give a good opinion on them? I have tried a ton of methods to wacky rig and may just go back to hooking through the worm and being done with it. I have tried heat shrink, single and double o-rings, orthodontic bands, etc. If someone says these work really well, I would maybe give them a try. Thanks 1 Quote
Otter17 Posted May 6, 2021 Author Posted May 6, 2021 I will certainly let you know once I receive and use them. I ordered them cause I really like how you can hook them both ways parallel or perpendicular. Same as Big Swimbait mentioned above. 1 Quote

Worked perfectly and saved me a lot of baits. As I said above, the best thing is the dual hole pattern to rig it different ways. Only thing I didn't like was if it was a tight fit, it took two hands to get the spreader out. Quote
Super User Fishes in trees Posted May 7, 2021 Super User Posted May 7, 2021 The only bait that I've used o-rings on is a senko and I've found that 3/8 OD and 1/4" ID 0 rings work best for me. Quote

I’ll see how they workout. *Research on the interweb indicates the 6mm size is most popular on the 5" Senko , the 7mm size is most popular on the 6" Senko and the 8mm is most popular for the 7" Senko . I believe that would hold true for the BPS Stik-O soft plastic stick worms as they are close to the same size as a Senko . If these sizes hold true - then I would say the 5mm size is good for a 4" Senko and the 4mm size is good for Trick Worms / Finesse Worms . Lastly , if using Yum Dingers (which are a smaller diameter than a Senko) then I would go down one size for each length ... I hope this helps ! 1 Quote
