Yep....been doing pretty good with the weedless hook from VMC, using an O-ring...and braid.
The braid helps feel that super light bite.

Oh and use the O rings, will save you a lot of baits for sure.

3 inch senkos work great, especially when the baitfish are small. However, you will have to use spinning tackle. I use 1/4 inch pieces of 1/4-1/8 heat shrink tubing for the 3 inchers. it's the same diameter as the senko so you can put it on without heat if you stretch the senko as you install. Hook it through the tubing and the senko and your hook will be perpendicular to the bait instead of horizontal like an o-ring. Use 3/8-3/16 for the bigger senkos.

Does wacky rig work on pines much?

....There are so many tips, tricks & things to do with a wacky rigged Senko or Trick Worm that it might be impossible to list them all.
everyone has their favorite way to hook and fish one. There is not one technique that is better or more fish catching than another.
O-Rings-Shrink tube--zip ties (of different colors)-- molded in rings
small open hook, big open hook, weedless circle hooks, gamagatsu hooks with weed guards in 2/0-3/0-5/0
4 inch, 5 inch, 6 inch
you name it .... you can do it
find the technique you like and JUST DO IT !!!!

oh I forgot --- weightless, nose weighted, tail weighted, middle weight, crimped weight on the line above the hook, C-Rigged, Texas rigged, floated under a bobber -- yes that's right... when it is windy rig up a wacky Senko and put a bobber 12-18 inches above it, throw it in front of a weed bed and let the bobber float the Senko back into the weed bed & wait, jiggle, wait & be ready to set the hook

A wacky rigged Senko is one of the most effective techniques around. I have also been in search of the perfect hook. The last time I was at Fork Eddie Garrett showed me a hook at Oak Ridge that works really well around brush. http://www.hallhooks.com/

The best tip I can offer you is to let the bait fall on a slack line. Too many folks try to hold the line taut so they can feel the bite. The thing that makes the Senko so effective is the way it wobbles when it falls. Let it fall on a slack line. If it is heavy when you pick up on it set the hook!

What he said.

I bet if someone took a count there is a hundred different ways to fish it... I like circle hooks myself... they snag a lot less.

I have yet to find a weedless wacky hook I can trust to be weedless in the thick brush I fish. If have tried wire guard, flouro/mono guard, cheapos, newer expensive models. Nothing I have found can keep out of the thick brush and limbs.

The key to not getting hung, all the time, with an exposed hook, weedless or not, as you work it back, don't let it lay over on it's side, when coming thru brush, etc., a semi-taught line will come over limbs gently, then fall again.

I love the VMC weighted weedless wacky hooks. they seem to be a lot more weedless than others. The hook up ratio has been close to 80% for me.

Gonna try a watermelon red Senko set as Wacky Style with the O-ring at Lake Fork next week. Hope it works.

use the "wicked wacky" gamagatsu hooks --i like a 2/0 or 3/0 --hi vis yellow power pro braid

i also fly fish so i approach wacky in the same manner --its a slack line presentation (hi vis helps this)
i get bit 95% of the time on the initial fall-- i rarely work it back to the boat !

senkos catch way more fish than anything else -though yum dingers are much more durable

o ring them all !

good luck !
