They eat them because of the ungula ting power, well that is at least what Cooch told me.

They eat it just because, they eat it good, and as fishermen thats all we need to know.

But, I am convinced its the combination of weight and wiggle that does the fish in. The weighting is perfect. Ive tried many of the knockoffs, and the reason they arent near as effective is because the weighting is all wrong (assuming we are talking just fishing t-rig weightless; sure, they all work using other presentations).

IMO, other than the birth of swimbaits, the senko is the most innovative and effective bait that has been created during my life time. Which reminds me, I havent thrown them in 2 years and I need to get them back into my routine/arsenal.:P (just as soon as I get off this dang darthead kick Ive been on lately).

95%+ of my fish do not come on the sink (weightless) and i have seen big red millipedes around (7"+) so..... whatever floats your boat

I think it can be any one of the reasons listed depending on how you fish the bait. Using shad patterned Senkos like a fluke absolutely kills sometimes. If you're crawling it along the bottom in more of an earth tone type color, bass could definitely see it as a crawdad. Alot of the time bass are just dumb and eat it because it's an easy meal. That really subtle wiggle produces alot of fish too. Any of those reasons and more is my vote.

My vote is for "that funny little wiggle"....

Now if you were at Shasta this past weekend like I was you would think those spots that were eating up the Senkos thought it was some kind of bait fish in there.....Either way that senko made someone a bit of money ;) No it wasn't me..x(

To fish is to live!
