Anyone still fish these, going to try them out again this weekend. Have not used one in about 20 years.

Predecessor to the senko. Senko works better.

I like the action of senko more, but from what I remember slugo is heavier and may skip under the bushes a little better

One of the most innovative lures of all time.
Sometime this Spring, try letting one sink to the bottom in 3-6 feet of water and c r a w l it along.

Youll need heavy line for what happens.


"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

Completely different baits.

I like the action--fluke/senko type action with a faster fall.

The different plastic formula they use for Slug-Gos takes some getting used to (can tear significantly where the hook enters the belly)

I agree. A Senko is not like a Slug Go. Completely different actions. If a Slug Go is a predecessor of anything, it would be a fluke.

I still have a big bag of "Golden Shiner" Slugo. That bait was a game changer on Fork when it first opened under the right conditions.


And I know who "Jeff" is.

The side to side action of a Slug-Go was unmatched until the Big Eye came along; so I changed over because of the eye. I was at Lake Baccarac during the hay day of both baits. We took 25 packages of each and barely had enough to finish out 5 days of fishing. Caught our biggest fish before daylight one of those mornings on a Pork-O out of the jar.
