Dinger vs Senko video

[top_dollar]

Cool video thanks for sharing.  I love wacky worm fishing.  I have a friend who is a one trick pony with his watermelon red dingers, no matter what or where, thats what he uses.....its a pretty good trick.

I'd rather catch more than 1-2 fish per bait.  I like the BPS stick-o's.  

I stocked up on watermelon red flake stick-o's on black Friday. Ended up getting 3 of the 50 packs for like $10 each. May not work quite as well but you definitely get more use out of them for the money.

After what we spend on boats, gas, rods, reels, line and everything else required to go fishing, I'm not about to knowingly cheat myself out of bites/fish to save a few bucks on soft-plastic lures. But that's just me.

Yeah I've bought cheap baits before and thought "I'll use these when it doesn't matter".

When doesn't it matter?  

It always matters!!!!

Saving some money and catching almost as many per day and more fish per bait works for me.I've never tournament fished and I get to enjoy being on the water more often this way. Doesn't matter what you use as long as you have fun doing it!

Sell your bass boat, buy a good Jon boat and a '75 Johnson 15hp.   Then you can load up on Yamamoto's and be ok financially.

Get some clear shrink wrap and melt a couple pieces in the middle of your senko. You don't go through them nearly as often. I've tried the o-ring method of rigging and I still prefer the shrink wrap. I'd guess 10-12 fish per senko is about the norm with the shrink wrap.

I have been using 3/8" shrink tubing cut in 1/4 lengths. I seal them up with a lighter before I go and they last real well.

I really like the ZinkerZ on a weighted wacky head.  I also throw a bunch of the dingers because I can buy 2-3 bags for the price of one bag of Senkos.

 

   haven't tried them, but would the Big TRD's work instead of (or in addition to) the ZinkerZs?

I would guess the salt content in the senko causes easier breaking and quicker sink.

They'll work for ned rigging, but I think they're too short to wacky rig IMO.
