Iowa Matt reply :
I find it funny how the walleye guys and the saltwater guys can't get enough Gulp! and the bass guys almost universally hate the stuff. It is absolutely my go-to bait when walleye fishing, but I don't use it for bass because I hate how it dries up so quick when you don't have it in the water for two minutes.
I would vote for anything Yamamoto as being overrated. They are so fragile that I typically get 1-2 fish per bait..........thats why after about 2 bags I started buying other brands of the same shape baits.

I agree with the 1-2 fish part, but I kill 'em on Senkos. I switched to the Yum Dinger per someone's information on this forum. They seem to last MUCH longer. I would recommend them to anyone.
In addition, I did however just order some senko-like plastics from El_Grande on this forum. Check out his post: http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1273439276/0#1 and get 20% off a purchase. I ordered some and can't wait to get them!

Lucky Craft cranks...
I bought some and dont get me wrong, they were nice, but I actually caught more fish on my Bandit cranks, just gotta change out the hooks and save $10 per crank. ;D

I agree, the only Lucky Craft worth the price may be the Pointers.
fathom reply :
just goes to show.
the pointers, the bds 2, flat mini dr and the cb-350 are my money baits...like the shadrap #5, they just seem to produce when all else fails.
will agree on the gulp thing, tho.
rat-l-trapper reply :
I defenitly think senkos are overrated. They are great baits, but some people seem to think they are the best bait ever. When I first started bass fishing, I used them a lot. Once I learned other techniques, I stopped using them so much. I feel like in most situations I can catch more fish and cover the water quicker with other lures. There are situations where senkos are the best thing to throw, but I rarely run into those situations. This is just me though, I know a lot of people swear by senkos.

LOL! Haven't caught a thing with any of their products either, for catfish or bass.
And as far as people complaining about Senkos, how do you figure? Someone said they get 2 fish per worm. So 20+ fish per pack of worms and yet they are overrated? Overrated would be something that everyone buys yet doesn't catch the fish or doesn't do as well as advertised. I fail to see how someone proving the product works could make it overrated. :

Crestliner2008 reply :
Most lure & bait manufacturers put a lot time, research and effort in what offer for sale. They have to. It's probably the most competitive business market there is! I don't believe any lure is over rated. I believe a lot are under rated though. Mainly because of the "fad" stages each has to go through.
Lures are just tools to achieve your primary goal of depth & speed control. A person not liking a Dancin' Eel or another totally loving a Senko, are emotions, not thoughtful use of such as the simple tools they are. Remember, anything will catch a bass.

This entire thread has been amusing.
Blue Streak reply :
This is one thing that fishermen are never going to agree on. I don't know what it is. One man's trash, another man's treasure I guess.

Eh. I'd say most fishermen are over-rated. Not the baits.

SJB1226 reply :
Gulp is simply a JOKE!!! come on 20 dollars for a pint bucket of jerk shads and you get about 12? leave them out on the boat deck for 45 mins and they dry up so hard you have to get the wire snips out to cut them off the hook lmao... and good god does it smell bad!
