no dude ... Senko's are not "submersible habitats" -- they're a plastic bait :D (spelled Senko ... not "sinko") made by Gary Yamamoto.




They're primarily a Bass bait ... rigged "wacky" style or "tex-posed" with a wide gap worm hook, and usually without any added weight. They're also probably used for "drop shot" rigs.
Their "claim to fame" is their built-in action. They're made of denser plastic, and are heavier than the "normal" straight plastic "worm" (so you are able to cast them without the added weight). They're designed to "wobble" as they fall thru the water ... and they are designed to fall with the "worm" staying in a horizontal position. They're "supposed" to mimic a injured/dying creature .. fluttering down thru the water, with an enticing "wiggle/wobble".

Now, as far as "do they work ?" ... I don't personally know. But, as with many other "bass" lures that catch Crappie ... I would think that they would. But, it would appear that they aren't selling as well as their bigger brothers ... hence the "overstock" sale:

And at $3 for a bag of 20 ... the price is certainly reasonable. .....cp

Just an interesting tidbit is the first one was made using a mold made from a bic pen. They work great on bass in the spring rigged Tex-Posed and I use and EWG Gamakatsu hook.
