Questions about Yamamoto Senko Fishing hook

how many worms come to a pack

Answer: Usually eight to a pack, can depend on the size of the bait

Answer: 10 senkos a pack

Answer: Lindsey, the ones I bought were 10 to a pack. Hope that helps. Jim Gill

Answer: Hey Just Another Consumer...I just read the description again... the is no information on the number per bag... how about just answering the damn question instead of being a jerk.

Answer: If you read the product description, you'll get your answer. READ PEOPLE!

Is this the price for one worm or a pack? If a pack how many/ pack?

Answer: If you think the price is 11.99 for one worm, the fish are smarter than you. It's per pack.

I'm in KY, trying to do some bass fishing in Ponds, and small lakes/creeks. What colors would you recommend?

Answer: I live in western Kentucky. We fish lots of old coal mine lakes and farm ponds. I have been using these baits for years now, and I have one particular color that will catch me fish even on bad days. The red and black Senko is the number 1 go to bait in my tackle box. I fish this weedless with a extra wide gap hook. I have one pole dedicated to this lure.

Answer: I just try to go a shade darker than the water, or tan/pumpkin if it's clear...the main thing is fish it slow slow slow....

Answer: I suggest the senko 925 . Although they are designed soft to tear up easily (I wonder why) the 925 has been the go to worm for me!! I have never used them and not at least got bites, when nothing else seemed to work. Goog luck and happy fishing from Louisiana.

Answer: I'm in KY also, however, don't do any small ponds. However I have had good results with purpl pearl/blue flk; wtr blk, rd/lt wtr, red blk; gr pmkn w/red flk...all standard fair. Would suggest starting our with 4" and work up in size...just a suggestion. Good luck.

Answer: lots of colors work for me, anything with a little sparkle, I like to have a few colors on hand, black, green pumpkin watermelon, smoke/black silver flake, lots of colors are good.

Answer: What John Owen said below about the bigger and darker in muddy/stained water and more natural colors in clear water is the best and easiest explanation you will get. I buy black/blue and some times Black/chartreuse most often because the waters I usually fish are always stained.

Answer: Depends on the situation you're in: muddy or stained water or cloudy sky = bigger worm and darker color. Clearer water, partly cloudy to clear blue sky = smaller worm and more natural/brighter colors.

Answer: Well one of my favorites is watermelon with black fleck 3 inches that is a bass killer rite there

Answer: Any watermelon colors work well, but gold flake slays

going to lake mcconaughy.and.whichone you think i should use

Answer: Is that Lake McConaughy in Nebraska near Ogallala and Keystone ? What time of year are you going to go? What species of fish are you after? I'm sorry but without more information answering this question is hard..... That being said, I generally have good luck with the watermelon/black/red 4 inch bait in a wacky rig or Texas configuration near underwater grass and shore cover. If earlier in the year (early spring) a cinnamon/red bait in 3 inch size works well in rocky cover as it mimics a crayfish for winter hungry bass species.

Answer: I would pair it with the water clarity. If clear go with a watermelon or green pumpkin. If stained go with a June bug or other dark color.

Is this black with a blue flake?

Answer: Yes

Answer: yes

Do these expire or have a peak shelf life?

Answer: Hello,

Answer: I don't think I've ever seen a "use by" or expiration date on plastics. Like most soft plastics they will dry out over time. These are very soft and have a ton of salt in them, as a result they don't last very long. But they catch more fish than any other stick bait I've tried. I usually fish Yum Dingers until the fishing gets tough, then I break out the Yamamoto Senkos.

Answer: I have never heard of there being a shelf life. But anything is possible. I've had Senko baits that I've opened two years ago and they still seem to be fine. But unless you're thinking the price will change dramatically, delay your purchase. But if you have a favor color and you want to ensure you always have it available, then I understand. You can contact the company from their website "Contact Us"

Answer:

Answer: If you keep them in a ziploc bag, they stay soft and slippery. I also cut mine in 1/2 and get twice as many that way. Fish love them! Good luck.

Answer: It's just like any plastic bait. Does not really say on package but I'd estimate about five years unused.

Anyone tried this on trout fishing?

Answer: No, sorry but it does work well on bass, various forms of bass and crappie.

what color should be used for clear water? Buying for my husband, so I don't have a clue.

Why such a rip off price?

Answer: They catch fish effectively.

Taking kids bass fishing in Indiana - someone recommended these but now I'm seeing "wacky" rings etc. what all do I need to get to make these great?

Answer:

Answer: You do not need wacky ring but they will help keep your worm on the hook

What size would be best for northern pike? And best way to rig it?

Answer: I usually fish these "wacky" rigged. fish hit when it falls or after 10 seconds when you slowly lift the bait upwards. I like circle hooks, which requires you to wait a few SECONDS before setting the hook, but are sure hooking and always end up in the corner of the mouth, not in the stomach. I release all fresh water fish I catch. A fish is too valuable to the sport to only be caught once. good luck and tight lines.

Answer: I do mostly bass fishing but the 5inch to 7 inch work better either rig it texas or with a drop shot or wacky

which one of the worms float

Answer: Senkos are not designed to float, they slowly sink in a kinda flutter , fish hit it on the way down, if your fishing bottom, simple raise your rod tip slowly & let bait slowly flutter downward

Answer: Senkos do not float

Answer: None that I have ever used. They sink slowly and are meant to be fished without a weight. I catch bass mostly with 5 and 6" but fish for lake trout with the 4".

Is there an easier way to buy all 78 colors instead of clicking on each individual pack 78 times ?

Answer: My guys could easily make a listing for all 78 colors. I could bump that down to $9.49 a pack and still cover the Amazon fees and shipping but save you some cash.

How many sinkos come with it

Answer: It has been a while, but I think it was 10 each. I hope this helps.

Answer: I'm pretty sure it is like eight

is this bait work in saltwater?

Answer: Hai Hello, This worm is already salt impregnated so that shouldn't matter. Yes it will work.

Answer: Tbh i do not know I don't think this bait would work in salt water though

Answer: I am not sure - this bait is loaded with salt and shimmies on the fall in fresh water but I do not know how it would react in salt water.

Answer: Yes. Reds, flounder

what size hooks should they be used with?

Answer: I have had great success using 4/0 offset hooks. Need to fish these wacky style. Buy the wacky rings to prolong the life of your lure. These are great lures!

Answer: 3/0 EWG hook

Answer: 3/0 to 5/0 extra wide gap (EWG) for Texas or Carolina rig...just about any for wacky rig, just depends on what type if fish you're targeting. I like 3/0 and 4/0 EWG for large mouth bass

Answer: 3 o

Answer: 3/0

What kind of hook and what size for wacky rig?

Answer: I usually use a gamakatsu weedless wacky rig hook , or if I am using a drop shot a vmc spincast drop shot hook and still rig it wacky. This worm is an absolute fish catcher no matter how you fish it.

Answer: I different hooks but have had luck with a 3/0 offset worm hook

Answer: People use many different hooks but I prefer a gamakatsu drop shot wacky hook

Answer: 1/0 or 2/0 wack rig hook

Could these be used to catch stripped bass?

Answer: I’ve never used them anywhere but fresh water but have caught all species with them.

Answer: Yes they could. Its a good versatile bait.

Answer: Absolutely not no way

Answer: Yes.

Is this in fact color #330 gp w/ purple & copper? and it is 2-10paks?

I dont understand why I was offered 2 day shiping and the Item has not even shipped two days later? Really think I should receive a shipping credit???

Is it true your not supposed to use bullet weights on senkos?

Answer: I do not use bullet weights and have had great success. My number 1 go to bait.

Answer: I have has my best luck with this bait weightless or with a small weight just above a 2 or thee foot leader. Good Luck!

Answer: You can definitely but they are best weightless

Answer: I’ve never had to use them.

does anybody knowif they have flaoting worm

Answer: Top water floating? I would have to say no but could be wrong.

When you order the black smoke why do you get cream white?

Answer: They will look different in the water.

IS water melon or green pumpkin better? which one?

Answer: Both. Either. Pick one, catch a few fish with it, and it will become your favorite. Green pumpkin black flake or some other flake seems to be more popular. I catch more fish with baby bass than all the other colors combined, but of course I have confidence in it so I use it more than all the other colors combined.

Answer: Green pumpkin. 5 inch. size 3 EWG gamagatsu hook . Weightless. Flip it out and let it sink. Or swim it slowly.

Answer: I had a ton of success in the spring with watermelon. I caught roughly 8 largemouth bass between a 1-3lbs after a rain storm. I kayak fish a lake with my St. Croix rod and Pflueger Supreme XT reel. In my opinion, watermelon colored works best for largemouth bass.

Answer: It all depends on where you are fishing and what fish are going for on a perticular day, best bet is to but a few different colors and see what ones the fish bite on. Good luck

Answer: I love watermelon...but both are real good.

Answer: Watermelon

How many worms are included?

Answer: I really can't remember. It was either 9 or 10 in the bag.

Answer: 10

Answer: 7 or 8 I believe

Answer: 10

Answer: Not sure, it seemed like about a dozen. Worth every penny.

how many worms in a pack of 7 inches?

Answer: 7 inch Senko's have 5 worms in a pack.

Answer: I believe there are only 5 in the 6" and 7" packages. The 3", 4", and 5" packages have 10 in each.

Answer: There are 10 worms in a pack.

Answer: I never use 7in Senkos...don't know. BTW, a Gary cut tail on a Slider worm hook works even better than a Senko.

Answer: 5 per package

The $275 worm is roughly the same amount as my boat payment. Is it worth it?

Answer: Awesome question. I can’t tell what would cost $275 after checking through several sizes and colors. That must be a mistake. I can’t imagine any lures being worth $275 myself unless it was lifetime unlimited numbers and types.

Answer: It's actually $7.62 for a pack of 10. I purchased the watermelon green and red flake for my uncle to use at KY Lake, he LOVED them and had me order more right away!

Answer: Not sure where you get that price

Answer: Price is wrong!

4"yamasenko smoke color 9S-10-002 not correct.on web? ;-( also cinnamon bulk large purple flake or color 9S-10-221

Answer: Have you tried using off brand senko like tiki sticks or a local shop? I found they work better than Senkos and are more durable. As far as colors they are different for brands too. I usually super glue my 2 favorite colors together is also a good variation.

Answer: I'm not sure all the ones I ordered came right

Is this black with a blue flake?

Answer: Yes

Answer: yes

ya i want purple gary yamamoto fishing bait, for catching walley, do you have them?

Answer: Thank you for your message. Let us look to see if we have any in purple and we'll let you know. Thank you.

Will this work for northern pike? If so what size and color do you think would work best?

Answer: I have never fished for Pike but if they can be caught on a plastic worm then these guys should work fine. I catch bass and lake trout in them. 5to6 inch for bass and 4 inch for trout.

i am looking for kanami 5 inch

New fisher here, what size should I choose for 1-8 pund bass?

Answer: Probably the most versatile size of this bait is the 5" - it can be fished Texas rigged, Wacky, weighted or weightless, yada, yada, yada...... But then again, sometimes the bass want something smaller.......

Answer: 5" or 6" works great. Depending on the time of year, and water conditions (murky, clear) you will want a couple colors. I have great luck with pink. Black is also a good stand by color and one with some sparkles (I like the dark green or blue). We've caught MANY 5-6 pound bass with these baits.

Answer: I have great luck with the 5" Yamamoto's -- Colors can vary depending on your area, but for me the baby bass is one of the best. Good Luck!

Answer: 5” inch

Answer: 5 inch then If you want to cut it in half you can also.

Answer: 5 inch

Do the colors really affect the catch count?

Answer: Not all the time, but yes it can. I was fishing in a small pond with no luck and the owner came out and said you need to be using reddish color. when I switched everything changed. I like pumpkin and the dark purple with bright flecks. caught an 11 pound bass on the dark purple this year. 6" bait. good luck. bueno suerte

Answer: If you can match the water color, it often helps.

Answer: Depending on the water clarity & weed beds, yes A safe bet is a Black senko.

Answer: It can

which worm packs are 0.10 cents

Do you sale color in bulk quantity

Answer: Does a bear shit in the woods?

I fish here (41.494762, -81.731060 <--Google maps.) any advice on color and size would be great.

Answer: Can't help because I don't fish anywhere near Edgewater Park near Cleveland. However, I get more hits with the cut tail Gary's than seinkos. These lures are still much better than any other artificial worms. And, make sure to use Slider hooks.

Answer: What species of fish are you trying to catch?

Answer: My most effective senco is a 5" in dark pumpkin/amber hooked on a #4/0 twist pin worm hook.Second choice dark pumpkin/watermelon,third choice black/white.Fishing for smallmouth or largemouth from bank on upland reservoirs.

Answer: I do best using 6'' black wacky style

Is it a ten pack or just one worm?

Answer: BE AWARE! Only the 5" senkos come with 10 in a pack. The 6" only has 5 and they do not make that clear. They're more expensive and you dont get that much more product. They need to add a couple more in my opinion. I suspect the 7" is not a 10 pack as well.

Answer: 10 pack for 5” worm

Answer: Ten pack

Answer: 10

Are these sented?

Answer: I haven’t bought this particular bubble gum senko, but my 5’ Black senko are salt covered

The color description and pictures don't match up. Which is correct?

what size hook should i use??

Answer: For Texas rig I use a Gamakatsu 3/0 EWG hook. For wacky there are several options but a size 1 gamakatsu octopus circle hook or equivalent from Owner or your favorite brand work very well.

Answer: for texas rig 3/0 ewg hook and for wacky rig 1/0 wacky rig weed less hook.

Answer: Size 1 with the clear brush guard over the hook. Looks like harder fishing line that protects the hook. You set it up using the o rings and the o rings hold the hook.

How many in a pack?

Answer: 10 per pack.

Answer: Five or six, and they are worth the money.

Should i do 3 inch? or so the extra 2 dollars and get the 4 inch?

Answer: I would go with the 5" seiko. I have found them to be effective on bass as little as 7 or 8 inches. If you are strictly fishing for smaller bass the smaller bait will work, however the 5" senko has worked for me from as small as I want to catch all the way up to 5 pounds

Answer: What are you looking to fish for? I would recommend the 4 inch for bass, they tend to bite bigger things but I have used 3 inch before and they work fine.

Answer: I normally use the 5 inch. I think the 3 might be a bit small unless you are using a shaker head or a Ned rig. I even have some six and seven inch senkos. A three inch would in my opinion be a special use item. Like someone else said, you can use the five for almost anything.

Answer: Go 4"

Answer: I use the 5” wacky rigged. Seems to work for me. Mainly largemouth in small lakes and pounds. 4” work for smallies around her in the rivers. Hope that helps.

Answer: Get the 5”

How many come in a pack?

Answer: It was close to 10-12

How many are in the pack? It doesn't say anywhere

Answer: 8 pcs

What weather/waters should i use the cinnamon brown black purple flake?

Answer: Great technique in either lakes or rivers, whacky rigging the bait and bouncing it over smallmouth bass spawning beds. Spring time temps that bring the water temp into the 50's and 60's will trigger this. Also, a great technique in the heat of summer on rivers, whacky rigging and tossing the bait into the back end of deeper holes and gently twitching the bait will get the smallmouth to strike. They don't move much at this time and wait for food to be washed into the back of the holes. Hope this helps land you some more fish

Answer: I would suggest you use it in dark or stained waters. It would also be good in lower light conditions such as dusk and dawn.

how many do i get?

Answer: Depends what size you buy.

I need 5" Yamasenkos in cinnamon brown/no flk

Product reviews of Yamamoto Senko Fishing hook

Bill : A1 for bass fishing

These are the best bait for bass hands down... My buddies seen me slamming bass left and right so I had to lend them a few to help them out. Ill be buying more now lol.

dec : Rings need to be a better guilty or worms

What to put the o rings on and they ripped apart lost two good seven inch senco worms

DRM : Unmatched senko.

As always with Yamamoto senkos, unmatched sink rate and durability.

Tom S. : Skam, Wrong color

Great worms but wrong color. I keep ordering watermelon but they keep sending dark red/black with flakes.

Kindle Customer : Works but....

Was having little luck summer fishing my pond for bass here in Florida. Got these and worked luck a charm. Green pumpkin Texas rigged. Only issue is went through all 10. Maybe it's the rig style but after getting hit, get the bass but lose the senko. Rarely get more than 1 use out of the worm.

Bill : A1 for bass fishing

These are the best bait for bass hands down... My buddies seen me slamming bass left and right so I had to lend them a few to help them out. Ill be buying more now lol.

Just another fan. : These are by far the best rubber worms you can use for Bass

These are by far the best rubber worms you can use for Bass. Caught 13 two days ago and 7 plus a pike yesterday. And hooked something that eventually snapped my line it was so huge(no fish story).

Rich M : They Work Very Well!!

The Senko is a great bait. It really works. I have caught many large bass (easily 3 - 5 lbs.) with these. I never go fishing without these in my tackle box.

My namz jeff : wacky rig works best for me i later found myself buying 5 bags ...

Look.... I've never heard of a senko or wacky worm until I started targeting specific species of fish... as well as watching YouTube the first time i bought these baits i only bought one bag and thought wow these are pricey but this things work! wacky rig works best for me i later found myself buying 5 bags at a time of these things HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF YOU WANT TO CATCH A FISH EVEN MORE WHEN FISHING WITH YOU CHILDREN

David : Gary's products are some of the best

I do pay more with these products. One of the reasons why Senko's work well is because of the action of the bait in the water. Couldn't really be much harder of a bait and still have the same movement in the water. So, you suffer a little durability in favor of having more movement in the water. Yes please. I have caught 100s and 100s of smallmouth with these. want to lose less Senkos, use a ring.

Bill : A1 for bass fishing

These are the best bait for bass hands down... My buddies seen me slamming bass left and right so I had to lend them a few to help them out. Ill be buying more now lol.

Jake : but that gives them better action in the water

South Florida lakes are dark and cloudy. These Black with blue flake and Junebug color Senkos are second to none. Yes, they are softer due to the salt content in them, but that gives them better action in the water. Buy these if you want to catch bass

Jose Costa : Great color works for me

Love the bait but did not catch a fish and that's my go to color for where I fish from but it was what I ordered.

Didi : Too pricey for worms that break like nothing.

Worms not working out for me. Breaking in half like nothing. Using them texas rig style. Package price for not worth for worms that fall apart.

William : Perfect for the fish

Fish seem to love it. Perfect for freshwater bass fishing. Super strong too, fish were not able to even make a small tear.

ATorres : Picky Bass

Have compared this with another leading brand of artificial worms. On the same day, time, and general location on a river, the bass seem to go for the other brand more than this one.

mattman : Don't go fishing without these beauties.

Want to catch bass? Buy these worms.
5", green/brown(clearer water), or black(muddy water) with any flake color. I fish them 'wacky rigged'(use wacky O-rings or they'll fall part pretty easy), with a Gamakatsu Wicked Wacky Hook 3/0 size. If shallow water(5 feet or less), fish them weightless. Cast out and LET THEM SINK NATURALLY.
If you don't know what Wacky Rigged means please Google it. It's great for these baits and many others.

Have patience. They don't sink quick when they're rigged weightless, but this is GOOD! These things shine when they're sinking naturally. Let them hit bottom and then let it sit for 3-10 seconds. Gently raise your rod up 3-4 feet and let it sink again while reeling in the slack. Maybe give it a twitch or two when you're raising your rod up. But then let it sink naturally again for 3-10 seconds. Rinse, repeat, catch fish.

If it's a bit deeper, fish it with a Drop Shot rig or Texas rig with a .25oz weight.
You can fish these things so many different ways. This is what works for me. More so than anything else I've tried. I live in Ohio and fish mostly lakes.
Have fun!

Theodore P. Huff : Great price and function

Appears to work well for Base fishing.

Paul : Great worms!

These are some of the best senko style worms I've used. They fall slow and have good action on the fall. Fish tend to eat these on the fall. Throw them Texas rigged with or without a weight, wacky rig them, neko rig them, use them as a trailer, etc. These things catch fish! As far as the value I rated it 4 out of 5 stars because they are a bit expensive. Durability I gave 3 out of 5 stars because they do tear very easy due to the massive amount of salt they put in the plastic to help it fall slower. They could use less salt but I don't think they would be as affective. I gave thickness 5 out of 5 stars because the fish do eat them so it must be right. I have thrown these things so many times and caught fish before they even hit bottom a lot of the times. I personally like to throw them Texas rigged with a cone shaped weight and a rubber weight peg. Sometimes I keep the weight pegged right to the hook and sometimes I slide the weight peg up about 8 inches so the weight can slide a bit. It all depends on what the fish are biting.

Just another fan. : These are by far the best rubber worms you can use for Bass

These are by far the best rubber worms you can use for Bass. Caught 13 two days ago and 7 plus a pike yesterday. And hooked something that eventually snapped my line it was so huge(no fish story).

DWF : Cast, Fish, Win....Don’t Date stupid people!

You throw it. You sit, sit longer and then reel in fish. The bait is still ridiculous in its fish catching.
No need to strain over color. Get a green pumpkin and a watermelon, if suns out throw the watermelon. If cloudy, use some amount of reason and choose appropriately.
No you don’t need red, purple, brown or blue.
For some you will need to make sure you take your daily dose of adderol before using. Methheads and Steroid users strongly advised to stick to the chatterbait and leave the trolling motor on high.
If you cannot handle your rod then an O-ring might help. As a general principle an O-ring is usually helpful and check insure that things stay as you need then to. This applies to shoelaces, belts and spanx as well.
Enjoy fishing and remember if you have fished more days than the number of days on which you given your wife a compliment, then don’t act shocked when someone else’s truck is in HER drive!

Didi : Too pricey for worms that break like nothing.

Worms not working out for me. Breaking in half like nothing. Using them texas rig style. Package price for not worth for worms that fall apart.

TH : Not very durable, but that’s why the fish love them.

Not very durable, but that’s why the fish love them.

Justin Lai : The Senko

Senko's! What can I say... these are "standard" must-have's for a beginner bass fisherman and even the pros. For some reason these specific colors were slightly cheaper because they had the amazon add-on price. Only improvement would be that all of the colors would be add-on priced.

BlueFalcon : Fall apart easily

There’s no doubt that these catch fish, but im not sure i can justify the price then they tear up after catching one fish

Bill : A1 for bass fishing

These are the best bait for bass hands down... My buddies seen me slamming bass left and right so I had to lend them a few to help them out. Ill be buying more now lol.

Didi : Too pricey for worms that break like nothing.

Worms not working out for me. Breaking in half like nothing. Using them texas rig style. Package price for not worth for worms that fall apart.

wolfinwolfsclothing : They're plastic worms ...

They're plastic worms. They really don't seem all that special. I've been using plastic worms for 30 years ...or more.
Other brands seem to work as well for me, at much lower prices. I'm not always fishing "on the cheap" but 5 worms for $8, as opposed to 15 for $5 ... I don't see different results , ...so I won't be reordering.

Platemail : Bass WILL hit this lure! They'll also destroy it...

I am in SW Florida, we fish several watersheds, lakes and ponds, I've never caught more fish off of one type of worm than I have with the #297 Green Pumpkin Senko. Fish everywhere will bite on this, every lake, every condition. Big fish, small fish, every fish hits this. I always run it Texas rigged, either weightless or with no more than a 1/8th oz. bullet weight on it, paired with 50 lbs braid/30 lb fluorocarbon leader, 3/0 or 5/0 EWG (Extra Wide Gap) hook and a #297 Senko. ANY color Senko will catch fish as long as it's the #297 Green Pumpkin..

The downside? They are expensive and they get destroyed after usually 1-2 fish. I have never caught more than 3 fish on a single bait. You get to rig from one side, catch a fish, if the worms wtill with ya, you can bite the tattered end off, flip it around, hook from the "tail end" catch a fish and its toast. A true testament to how aggressively fish hit this lure, how soft the plastic is and how life-like the movements are.

BlueCrab : One of the best ways to catch Bass

One of my go to's for Largemouth Bass. Many times it outfishes all other baits and lures. I've been using Yamamoto products since they came out. I've written to the owner once giving praise and was pleased to get a response back as well. Great product. Wish it was a tiny bit more durable but it probably comes at a cost to the action I assume. One of my favorite means to catch Bass!

RandyRT : Hooked a monster bass on first throw.

I'm a novice fisherman... Especially when it comes to freshwater. I was using a small gold spoon and catching small bass and brim. I thought that's all the lake had in it.... Wrong.... Thanks to this worm I found out my lake has absolute monsters in it. He did get off the hook unfortunately... But when he jumped, it was incredible how large he was.

wolfinwolfsclothing : They're plastic worms ...

Venice Moon : The leader in senkos

Can you go wrong with a senko? Especially one infused with salt?

Myron Getman : Great for Wacky-rigging for Bass

This color combination is very effective on large and small mouth bass in large, rocky-bottom lakes in Upstate New York. I strongly recommend you have this in your tackle box. I've found great success using these wacky-rigged.

murmur : These catch bass when nothing else works.

These catch bass. On dark rivers, I use dark colors, especially the dark green patterns and black with blue flake. In lighter tanic acid water I like the ones in the brownish area. I like lighter silvers and blue in clear water. Two tones (where the back and belly are different colors) don't seem to work as well for me.

Amazon Customer : Hope my competition never buys these

Yes they break apart, yes they are soft, but if you want the most effective Senko on the market hands down, the Yamamoto Senko is it. I don't know the science behind it but 2 weeks ago I took a person fishing and gave him a clinic on the senko. I tied on one of the Yams and hammered fish after fish, and then I used another brand and though I caught a few, it was day and night different, much slower bites. I cast out the other brand and not get a hit, then in the same spot cast the Yam and catch 3 or 4 fish. These baits have better action and they are softer and the fish bite them and hang on. Many times if you are not careful the fish will swallow the bait whole so when using this brand of senko you actually have to set the hook more quickly than normal to avoid killing the fish. Hey, do what you want. I hope none of my competition ever buys these personally

Actual Purchaser of Goods : If you cast it, they will come.

Any bass fisherman with at least some experience knows about senkos. Obviously, they catch fish, plentiful amounts of fish.

Product quality and delivery through the online vendor is fantastic. I have bought multiple packs on three separate occasions and have had no issues with damage to the lures or the packaging.

Main thing I wanted to emphasize: price on certain items on this vendor beats the big box stores by a significant margin ($1-$2 )depending on color and the timing of the purchase.

These are great the action is like no other but i give it 4 stars because they tear easily

Justin Lai : The Senko

james : Great

Definitely a lot of cheaper bait out there but the durability and quality you get with these is unmatched.

Kings Jewels : Fish Magnet

Great service good product!

David : Gary's products are some of the best

wolfinwolfsclothing : They're plastic worms ...

Amazon Customer : Best non live bait out there

Love Yamamoto Senkos. Not sure I've used a more consistent bait than these. Occasionally I get the urge to try other plastics but I always seem to end up throwing a Yamamoto back on.

Steven : The best senkos

No question i win when using Gary's senkos. It became my stand by all summer when the jigs or lures were not working. You can't go wrong. ONly issue is they are not durable, but you know that going it and I would not want to sacrifice catching bass for a little bit more durability

MMau5 : Get it!

My bf bought these after watching his friend catch tons of fish while he caught...none. The color attracts all sorts of fish. He and I have caught large and small mouth bass, huge crappies and northerns. We have other colors and they don't catch fish as much.

Chris : The Senko worms are great! In my fishing waters the green pumpkin and watermelon colors are consistent performers.

The Senko worms are great. In my fishing waters the green pumpkin and watermelon colors are consistent performers. I like the purple and red flake in them also. For me, this color works in clear and slightly stained water. Senko's have enough weight that I choose to not use a weight in the Texas Rig set-up.
Price wise these were $2 cheaper than my nearby Cabel@$ so I was happy about that. When they arrived 2 of the worms had the tips cut-off and a 3rd was mostly removed, apparently from S&H. This shouldn't impair the performance of the bait but it's still frustrating.
