Use the big 6" model and carolin rig it.

what water conditions are these presentations good for?

I thought carolina rigging required a soft plastic that floats...

[bassman_ky]

Very few plastics you buy actually float. Charmers are the only plastics line I personally have fished with that will keep a 3/0 hook on top of the water while setting still. Back to the Dinger. I have caught a ton of fish using a Dinger on a carolina rig. That's about the only way I fish them. I don't have the patients to fish them wacky style. On the carolina rig, I fish whatever plastics the fish will bite. I have heard of a lot of people using a Zoom Super Fluke and having good luck doing so.

I have had good luck fishing the 5in. Dinger on a shakey head and Texas rigged. The Texas rig works really well in grass.

I fish them quite a bit. The only time I T-rig them is when I am fishing them near brush or grass - they just don't get hung near as easy. 90% of the time I will fish them wacky. I use the 0-rings, and a small circle finesse hook. I basically cast them out, and let them sink. I will let them sit still on the bottom for a bit, and then stroke it up a few feet and let it fall again. Most of the time they will hit it on the slow fall, but every once in a while they will take it off the bottom.

They are good any time of the year in the right spots. I prefer them in the spring when fish are up shallow. But have had good luck on them in the middle of summer too. I have already caught one 7 pounder this year on them. I think it is hard to beat the original senko's, but have been using the netbait salt-licks some this year too.

I like to fish them weightless and rigged Texas style. I use a 3/0 gammy. I toss them SHALLOW and twitch it

[Col Forbin]

I guess I should have said weightless on my T-rig too.
