Re: 6.89 Senkos
Senko's are to expensive anymore for the average income angler. I think I may start using the Bass Pro Shops version, I heard that they work just as well and have all the same colors. Don't get me wrong I love Gary's product, but anymore they are just too expensive for my taste...

Re: Catching followers
You would be surprised to how many followers will fall for a wacky rigged senko. After they turn from your swimbait throw the senko about 3 feet infront of them and let it sink. I have caught a lot of followers this way. Allways have a wacky rigged senko on deck when throwing swimbaits.
