I use 15lb test braid on a spin rod for fishing them. It holds up pretty good in the weeds.

30 years ago we used Sluggos. Not a lot of difference between a Sluggo and a Senko.

I don't do a lot of fishing for LMB these days. Probably have five or six dozen Sluggos left over from back then.

I might ought to get some out and try them next time I hit the river for HSB. I bet they'd work just as good as the $10 six packs of swim baits that are popular now.

I've discovered that the slower the drop, the more bites I get. Most of the time, anyway. Patience is a virtue, though not one I find easy to cultivate.
