Thai Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 I don't think there is a better drop shot lure than a 3" senko. They also work great on slider heads skipped under docks. The only time I ever caught fish on a dropshot rig it was with 3" senkos! Quote
Jake... Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 dont knock the tiny senkos they can be so unsuspecting at times Quote
Bigs Posted November 10, 2009 Author Posted November 10, 2009 bigger bait != bigger fish Thats not really true when it gets cold. You can catch giants in the fall/winter on grubs and they are alot smaller then the average plastic worm. Quote
NewAngler Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Senko= my ONLY producing bait right now Quote
LHC - Bank Robber Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 fished from noon till 3 got about 12 large mouths all on 3 and 4inch senkos, big fish was pushing 4lbs, tried frogs spinnerbaits, and a popper only had one fish miss a popper. Also had a few snakeheads followin the senkos. Quote
mantis1 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Got one- 1 lb dink on the Occ Riv today. Right across from the ramp. Hit a gold rattle after I let it sink. Not one hit after. We threw everything except topwaters. Quote

Also had a few snakeheads followin the senkos. you cant keep posting up every day sayin your catching 12-15 bass without some pics. Post'em up and tell me where youre catchin all these fish. I have been back to hunting creek 2 times since I went with thai and not even a nibble on anything I threw. Quote

He was saying that big baits don't necessarily mean big fish. I'm actually with shimmy. I don't care enough about catching a few dinks to end a crappy day to tie on a 3" senko. At the end of a crappy day, they don't make me feel any better. Quote

I have been back to hunting creek 2 times since I went with thai and not even a nibble on anything I threw. I got a pic of one on my phone ill see about posting it up. I havent had much luck up in the creek either as of late. However, at high tide off the front of riverside park is a different story plently of fish there just gotta find them and hammer them quick before tide starts out. Quote

LHC - Bank Robber Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 This was the first fish, taken on 3inch blue fleck senko Quote

Super User Dan: Posted November 11, 2009 Super User Posted November 11, 2009 I'm up for fishing on Thursday but I have to walk a dog at least in the afternoon around 3:30 and maybe that morning but I'm not sure yet. I'll know whether or not I have to go Thursday in the morning by tomorrow. Where we going? Quote
Bigs Posted November 11, 2009 Author Posted November 11, 2009 if the rain keeps up like this then we're lookin at 3 straight days of rain not to mention some murky water. Hopefully the weather forecast is totally wrong. Quote

NewAngler Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 I will be in Manassas on Thursday. I might be down. Quote
shimmy Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 I have noticed not many agree about the 3 inch sinko. Thats ok, my focus is to catch bigger bass and i understand every other leap year someone tags a big bass with a fly or something small. In addition, this is not to say 'littlehuntingcreek" hasn't caught a big bass before, just sayin your PB is probably not from the 3" girl bait. What, what did i say? I think the 12 fish you caught the other day probably looked like MR. Smileys pet goldfish. Quote

I think the 12 fish you caught the other day probably looked like MR. Smileys pet goldfish. I caught around 50 3-4lb smallmouth on 3" senkos on a drop shot for 5 straight days at Bob's Lake in Westport Canada this summer. Throw that drop shot out in 30+ feet on a point and just let it sit there, I got slammed! I don't throw them in grass beds or on a Carolina Rig but for skipping docks and fishing rocky structure in 35 feet of water they are awesome. A 3" senko still looks like a minnow and will catch big fish. Quote
