Imitate this - Sphyraena borealis Northern Sennet
Trying to get some interaction here between everyone. I'm going to try and run an Imitate This thread if its successful we'll run one every 2-3 weeks to give everyone time to come up with stuff, at the end we'll post pictures.
Last fall for 2-3 weeks we couldnt get the bass to eat any big wood, one night we realize why... they were going to TOWN on these little guys and the water was pretty much clouds of these Northern sennets, looked like someone spilled bottles of yoohoo in the water every so often. So, for the first imitate this we'll do the Northern Sennet. It can be your interpretation, exactly the same or just colors or exaggerated, bigger smaller etc. The picture below is just a quick pic I found, feel free to look up others etc. Im curious to see what everyone comes up with, since this is the first one lets plan on posting final pictures on April 30th. Until then its cool to post up ideas you're kicking around, progress pictures etc etc. Hopefully we'll get some good participation out of this one and maybe a few more guys on the next one etc etc..
Here is the fishbase information for the species:

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Sennet
I cheated a little as I think I pretty much got the shape pretty close with some I had hanging from the rafters, so i took a look and found these. I need to add a stripe. I am going to do some painting tomorrow so I got plenty of primed blanks waiting for color so I will try a closer paint resemblance.

Here's my take. Maple, 2.5oz, small weight ahead of 2nd hook. Looking for a needle/darter that I can fish very slowly in calm water with short darts from rod sweeps. This works, but wants to go deeper than I'd hoped, probably because of the high line tie (though I'm not sure....I haven't figured out depth control on darters yet).

My experience has been further back the tie ,,up the slope ,, the deeper they go .. maybe a lighter wood ,, not as drastic as AYC but like bass wood maybe .. All mine are bottom sweepers .. I like it down there.. wouldn't fish well in surfacing boulders though.. Thats why they make wakers right ?

George, those are sweet!
My sennett was cleared after work today. Had to repaint yesterday to cover a good idea that wasn't.
