Are these better than the Yamamoto Senko?

Just give them a chance TRUST me.... I literally just moved to Dallas this week I use them more than any other senko on the market.... They are cheaper yes but only last about ten casts. personally out fish yamamotos 10-1 for me on wacky rig ONLY. I was able to fish Conroe last summer for three hours on the bank on riprap for abot 30 yards under a bridge caught a decent amount 15 for being on the bank. Just have faith in them I've fired up so many schools because the action is like no other on the market.... Btw try their finess worms..... Twice the action as any other.... Again if you stay with it I promise you'll never change your worms, you'll see

Here is some info on our Zero. It is made from ElaZtech which makes it softer, flexible and is heavily impregnated with salt which gives it a fast sink rate. I encourage you to pick up a pack and give them a try and determine yourself if its a bait that you would like to have in your arsenal. Because of their durability you don't go through them as quickly. I use them quite regularly and always have one tied on. Give us a report if you decide to fish one.

I don't think any of the imitations beat the original Senko made by Yamamoto. I do use some of the cheaper ones like Big Bite and some of the ones you see at Mom and Pop stores. These knockoffs seem to work fine when the fish are active but when the bite gets tough or fishing heavily pressured water gimme the real Senko.

No the zero is no where close to a Yamamoto but the perfect plastic Ocho is a great bait.

I like the feel of them, They do have a little Different action. But, they are temperature Sensitive, And they don't melt well With others for recycling purposes.

There are some comedians on the TFF.

The zero will work ok.....but to compare it to the real Senko is laughable.

Did these replace the Shim-E-Stick? I really liked the Shim-E-Stick but I can't find them anymore.

The first fish I ever caught on a stick bait was with a Strike King Brand... but since then, I have primarily bought G.Y. Senkos (unless I find a really good deal or color in another brand, then I give em a try...Only ones I haven't had any luck on at all, are the Yum Dingers)

out of all the brands I have tried, I would say that Strike King is at least #2 in stick bait (Senko) quality

I've used both & I will take a Zero over a Senko any day of the week & twice on Sunday's. I will, however, take a Senko over almost all of the other imitations. I have done several experiments with the two baits & the Zero was the clear winner. You do need to use both & decide which one you like best. My wife loves them so much, it's about the only plastic she uses. Her worm bag literally consists of 99% Zeros & a couple of Zoom plastics.
Good Luck,
Mike


Have a Blessed Day,
Mike
