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.
