Well, we all know that senko's work, whether it be 4" or 5" and yes, some like it bigger.  However, what are your favorite colors and colors that work here in the Northwest.  Now don't hold back.  Also, list your favorite manufacturer.  I here there are some knock off's (Yamamoto is the original) that are very similiar in weight, salt and fall.  WHO are they and why do you like them?

BPS stick-o's do not fall like senkos, they are too stiff.  Yum dingers I think are the next best thing to Senko's, though I haven't tryed the tiki's.  As for colors, I have an assortment, though the winning Yamamoto color of the 06 Silver lake open seems to be my fav lately, 176 is also great  

I prefer 5" Watermelon Senko's for Largies  & Smallies in clear water. In stained water I will throw Junebug or black and Blue.

I found another favorite color but have to keep a secret due to an up and coming Potholes tourney.

Wave worms and Yamamoto's is all I throw.

Good Post Chuck,

Y2Says, please let me know especially how you like the Zero's.  I hear they are pretty good but personally haven't tried any.  Also, heard alot of good things about the Tiki also.  Keep the information coming, I like to see things like this and I'm sure it helps alot of club members.  Does anyone worry about Cost?

If you aren't worried about price, buy Senko's.  If you are worried about price, but you want to catch more fish, buy Senko's.      Those are my 2 cents and I'm stickin too it.

Whats a Senko?               I use Senkos and Kinami cut tails in the color them fishies tell me too. Pumkin,watermelen, cinnamon,purple, and black all with some type of flake color.

Personally I have not found a color that doesn't work.  I don't think color it a large factor in this bait!  I stick to three groups: dark, light, and tranluscents!  Ex: If dark is working I can switch from dark green to black, to dark blue - doesn't matter.  The way you fish it, and where you fish it are far more important than color.  Personally, color is mostly a head game - someone catches fish on one color and suddenly it it is the magic bait!  Nothing else will do!  After reading all the different colors mentioned above, it's clear it is all about confidence!
