ian515 Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 I keep losing my senkos about every other catch. is that normal? I have gone through almost 3 bags of senkos and swim senkos (3 bags between the two senkos) in 3 days! granted, I have been catching a lot, so maybe that is average? Quote
Gannoli Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 you can try using a parasite worm clip. they are suppose to save your worms for getting ripped Quote
bkoguy07 Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Yeah senkos are extremely fragile, I've lost hundreds... dingers work well made by YUM, they are cheap too! Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted June 20, 2008 Super User Posted June 20, 2008 ...granted, I have been catching a lot... What was the question? : Okay, if you're not using a 4/0 EWG Offset Worm Hook, try that for starters. Sometimes a fish will throw a bait, but otherwise the Senko should be good for several fish. I fish the Senko for several reasons, but "texture" is an important attribute for me. If you want a very similar bait that lasts significantly longer, give * Salty Trick Stick a try: http://*.com/ 8-) Quote
Uncle Leo Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 These work well. I ahev used them on Senkos and have cuaght numerous fish on one single Senko type bait. If the bait is that hot pinch off the end. A bit shorter will not hurt, I have done that numerous times. you can try using a parasite worm clip. they are suppose to save your worms for getting ripped Quote
mike bat Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 thats one of the drawbacks to yammy senko .... they are good for one fish .... now that also is a pluse because THEY CATCH FISH .... LOL ... so i geuss its a horse a peice ;D Quote
ian515 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 I will try a bigger hook. I am actually using a 2/0 I believe. I am really impressed with the senko's though, they not only catch lots of bass, I hooked two walleye, and a northern as well. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted June 20, 2008 Super User Posted June 20, 2008 two things that will increase fish per bait: 1: use a parasite clip www.parasiteweights.com 2: use *** trick sticks instead of senkos www.*.com Quote
bigmountaineer Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Me personally, ditch the over priced, overrated GYCB Senko, Quote
SimonDM17 Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Another SSB, and one that is WAY more durable than the Senko, is the Strike King 3X Zero, but it's pretty tough to skin-hook it because of the 3X plastic. Also, it doesn't come in black. Quote
Super User Catt Posted June 21, 2008 Super User Posted June 21, 2008 You can't have both so which do you want fish in your live well or lures in your tackle box? Quote
