Senko Tip

[bucktail]

Just a quick little fact that popped into my head after reding about Gary Yamamoto baits on sale at LeBarons.

 

The exact center of gravity of a Gary Yamamoto senko is 7 ribs to the middle of the egg sac.

I think I picked this up on Jarrett Edwards fisihng show , not sure but really handy!

Not usre if its true for clone baits but interesting enough.

I was spring cleaning my brain and found this tip!!!

Yes, Jarrett Edward has said that on his show. I've seen him say it on at least 2 episodes.

Have you found this to be true for all sizes?

Sorry if this sounds dumb, but should I be wacky rigging right at the centre of gravity? I've been doing it at the smooth part of it all of last season.

 

And let me contribute a bit (Although I'm pretty sure most of you guys know it). If you are fishing senkos/imitations deep and don't want to wait, you can wacky rig with a jighead, which gives a different action too. You guys can look up flick shake on youtube, and they have a different plastic by jackall-BPS has a good imitation for half the price. These worms have slight bends in them.

 

Instead of shaking a tight line, shake your rig with a bow on your line. the jighead becomes the pivot point and a whole different action is made.

Go easy with the bleach, and for goodness sake wear a mask, it's dusty in there.

 

Good tip.
