Are they all created equal... I say no. Gary all the way. Thoughts?

I've had just as good success with a 5" Ocho. Not sure if the fish have learned brands yet. Colors and presentation are probably more important.
I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed. Conscience never acquits, it either accuses or excuses.

With a weight they are all the same, its when you go weightless that Yamamoto shines!

No.....they ain't the same. They have different prices for a reason.
.......and I hope this doesn't turn into a "Is a Senko worth the money" post and "can you pour a better stick bait for less" post.

I've caught way more fish on a senko than a yum dinger. But I'm not sure they is much difference between the 2

well, Pretty much 95% of the time I fish Im using a weightless senko. From 8-20 deep. I love Yamamoto. In terms of fall rate, catch rate, density, ect the BPS sticko and Yamamoto senko are identical. Ive tested everything up to the absolute value of the density of the plastics and i would swear he makes them for BPS.
All the other brands suck If fishing true weightless

Different prices for a reason....and the reason is because they can! If they work better for guys they will continue paying extra, I get that but there is nothing but conjecture here as to which formula is the more expensive bait to build/pour.

I remember someone pointing out that Gary Yamamoto let his son Derek use the same baits in his Kinami lures. They packaged less per package so they seemed less expensive but the price per bait was exactly the same.

They have different prices for a reason So Steez, using that analogy the higher the price the better the product ? Sometimes. Yum products are lightweight, low salt, rubbery junk. Senkos....well, they are what they are....expensive and very good and very consistent. Stick-O from BPS is a slightly less expensive, good alternative when Senkos are sold out. Of course when comparing prices at BPS, Stuck-Os are are GREAT value compared to Senkos. Since BPS sells senkos significantly above suggested retail. And, like previously stated, the differences are only noticed on weightless setups. Add a weight, and the cheaper the better. But, even then, I only have senkos in the boat.

If you want to see the difference in how they're made... take one of each, and with both hands, bend, pinch, twist, and tear at them, until it comes apart, you'll realize then.

A very underrated stickbait is the Reaction Innovations Pocket Rocket
