ok heres how i fish them.if you have a lot of hydrila in the lake ou fh in i would recomend useing a round bend hook and texan ris it. if there is not alot of hydrila use a ewg hook. all you do to work it is make a long cast, let it sink to the bottem. then deadstick it. lift it like 6-10 inches off the bottem. work it as slowly as you can. i prefer to fish senkos in 4-5 foot of water. if you are not catching any fish you are working it to fast. if you are going to fish it in springtime i like to use a senko with red flake or red shad with a red hook. i use small hooks with my senkos i use a 3/0 gammi ewg hook. i hope this helps.
