Fish that Senko the Right Way
Unless you've just crawled out from under a rock, you know that a Senko is one of the hottest baits on the bass tournament circuit. Professional anglers developed the lure, and pioneered the techniques that are now dominating many tournament podiums.
And sad to say, most of us are wasting fishing time and effort because we are not doing what they do. Here's the definitive way to fish that increasingly popular bait:
Fish it slow, and then slow down even more.
Stay in contact with the lure as it sinks as this is when most strikes take place. Keep a finger on the line, and while it should drift down without undue tension from the line, don't give too much slack.
Be patient; let the lure sink all the way to the bottom. This takes a while. For reference, drop it off the side of the boat and watch.
Be ready for subtle hits. A slowing of the lure's descent, line movement right at the water's surface, that "funny feeling," are all possible takes.
Because Senkos often twist line as they sink, you should consider rigging a small swivel about 12 inches above the lure.
Then, hold on (lightly) and be ready for some of the biggest bass of the season.
The standard for scoring big game animals in the field has found its way into the court room, where prosecutors are hitting poachers with harsher fines, felony charges, and jail time.
