Do any of you use a Senko style stick bait on a drop shot rig?

361 and finesse, thanks for replies. I'm fishing stained water and am thinking a larger worm will be more visible.

Thanks finesse and ezbassin re. colors. After the grass carp ate all the hydrilla and the water became stained, I started fishing with junebug worms and have recently gone to black stick bait worms with blue flakes.

A Senko works, I know. But with a Senko kind of gets away from "finesse presentations". I go to a little bigger hook(2/0 EWG light wire +) and a little bigger weight(1/4oz +). They do work!

Wave Tiki Stick in the 4" has a slimmer profile and is a happy compromise. Many people really like them on a shaky head as they stand up well.

Yamamoto makes a 4" and a 5" slim Senko that is awesome on a drop shot. You can use them wacky or texas rigged.

What if you whacky rigged a senko as the running lead on a double fluke rig? The bass will be so confused by the complexity they'll have no choice but to kill the fluke or the senko just so that the world makes sense to them again! ...or just throw 2 senkos...
Profoundly silly idea that I may actually try just because it's so weird...
