Offshore would be open water fishing, grass flats, weed fields, tullies islands, areas in open water. The rest is shoreline fishing or deep water structure/contour fishing

GEORGE D. wrote:what size tsuyoi weedless wacky hook do you use on the senkoes thanks george
Depends on what size Senko you are throwing. For 5 inch Senko's, I like a 2/0. For the 6 and 7 inch Senkos' a 3/0 is perfect. You can jump up to a 4/0 for the 7 inch Senko, but I find that to be overkill.
