# 5 - YAMAMOTO SENKO

If you haven’t fished a Senko, you are missing out. This bait is incredibly easy to fish. Just put it on a 4/0 or 5/0 wide gap hook, with about 12 lb line, cast it out and hold on. The mistake many people make in fishing this lure is trying to impart too much action to the lure. It has its own unique action built into the design of the lure. Just cast it out, let it sink, and then slowly work it through the strike zone. Green Pumpkin is the color most selected by pros, and you might find that a lighter color works better on bright still days.
