Lots of fish in shallow weeds. Getting strikes on almost every cast to the weeds but hardly any hookups. Would knock it around but not eating. Tried going down to #1 mosquito hook but no improvement. Some are dinks but some decent fish there too.

Few bluegill but not many. Clear water - could see most of the fish and mostly small bass

You can run the Senko up the line a little farther and set the book more in the middle of the worm
It's worked for us before

3 inch Senkos would be money. Try a 1/0 straight shank finesse worm hook with a keeper, or a 2/0 Rig N' Hook. Also, let them swim with it before you set the hook.
