When fishing new water, my search bait of choice is the Senko because of it’s versatility and multi-species catchability. The Senko can be rigged Wacky or Texas, with or without weight, and can fish the entire water column. Senkos also mimic an array of bait because they are available in several sizes and a spectrum of color patterns.
Having caught fish in waters that I have never fished before via Senko, I am convinced that the Senko is the optimal search bait. I have caught several species on Senkos: largemouth bass, small mouth bass, and chain pickerel. This past season, I added a new species to my Senko search-catch list: catfish! I am now convinced that the Senko is the ultimate multi-species search bait.
