Dingers, Wave Worms, more like them. Never fished the real deal Senko though. They're a tad bit pricey this ol' boy. From what I've read though I might be missing fish. I chunk a trick worm/trick worm magnum too. Dang ol' trick worms require a weight when I fish 'em. Or spinnin' tackle. Not a fan of sinkers and wacky wormin', weightless works best for me. Gave up spinnin' tackle a while back.
Got wacky with super flukes a couple of times with a little success. Lot's of folks say they've done good with 'em. I guess when it comes down to it, you can get wacky with just about anything.

The bass's favorite worm rigged wacky style is a Zoom Finesse worm. I catch the most and largest using them. Color does not matter to the fish.

6 inch Kinami Flash in red shad and baby bass colors. also pretty much anything red shad works well for me
INBasser reply :
Lake Fork Trophy Lures makes the best whacky worm on the market IMO.
Its got a great design and its made to be used with a weighted ring that the hook goes through (The ring not the bait, giving the bait more use!)
Took it out yesterday and caught my first bass of 2010 on it with the water temp being around 35 degrees.

I'm not patient for wacky. But I must say, a good friend of mine used a 6" Slug-Go wacky and a largemouth tore it up! Ferocious little beast.
K_Mac reply :
I have had great success with BPS Stick-os in 5 3/8" and 6." The 6" on an 1/8 oz jig head has been one of my go to baits the last couple of years. Crawberry and pepper frog/hot orange are my current favorites.
JigMe reply :
5" senko, watermelon w/ red, black flakes.
wide gap #4 hook
RoLo reply :
With a "T-rigged" worm, you'd be very hard put to beat the action of a Yamamoto Senko.
With a "wacky" rigged worm though, nearly any stick worm is going to generate plenty of action.
W-rigged worms are most effective with passive fish because they provide poor lateral coverage
and fall very slowly. The horizontal position of a W-rigged worm creates far more
water resistance than a T-rigged worm, so they fall much slower and waggle much more.
However, the worm with the most action isn't "always" the best worm for bass in a negative mood.
All that said, I use the Gambler Ace for wacky worming (shadow blue glitter).
