Yep I’m home, I got into the apartment at 11:30 yesterday morning

I have tried the swimming senkos and haven’t had one single bite

Are you back in Korea?????

Nomad – if there are black eel type fish swimming around in that river, I would give some 4″ and 5″ black GY swimsenkos a try

You hit the nail on the head; a few years ago, one of my friends took home some of the bass he caught in the river here, and when he cleaned them, he found a bunch of dark grey/black eel or eel-like fish in the bass’s stomachs. But, I still have to give Gary Yamamoto all the credit and it’s not just us in Korea catching bass on Senkos.

“Senkosia Nomadius”

I think I figured it out why the Senkos perform best among the lures you toss. There must be a type of worm or leech that inhabits the waters that you fish and it resembles the Senkos. The only way to confirm this is to get some snorkeling or scuba gear and have a look; or use some fine mesh dip nets to collect some samples.

Korean biologists most likely have never heard of this worm. It is unknown to science. Therefore if you discover it, it could be named after you. Something like: Senkosia Nomadius.

Haha, I’d be right behind you (at a respectable distance, of course)

James,

True words, my friend. Being out there at in time to watch the horizon slowly turn from dark to light, then watching the sun rise while the mist is drifting over the water, birds are circling and the absolute sound of silence are all a therapy that a 100 psychiatrists couldn’t do for me. It’s during those times that I get my thinking done, set my head on straight and solve all the world’s problems. Heh.
