My favorite bait!!!!!!!!!!!!,August 22, 2006
By floridabassmasterfrom west palm beach, Fl
"This is the best bait i've ever used so far. You can fish it at the bottom,as a subsurface jerkbait and even as a topwater lure.As you can see this is a very versatile bait that can be used for many situations. I caught my personal best on this bait in red shad color using it as a topwater lure. It was a 6.2Lbs bass that just exploded out of the water and grabbed the bait. It was the most exciting fight i've ever had.I highly recommend this bait.."

one of the best,July 27, 2009
By Lairdofrom California
Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Quality
"One of the best on the market. It can by used many different ways. My favorite is just fishing slowly wacky style. No needs for weights because it casts like a cannon! I swear by color 13. They come salt impregnated which can attribute to its success as well. I prefer to use a Gamakatsu Split Shot/Drop shot Hook with it. It hooks the bass right in the jaw usually or right behind the lip."

Fair Competitor,June 13, 2009
By VINISCULLINfrom Western Connecticut
Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Style/Design Disadvantages: Durability
"bought these as a replacement for yamamoto Senkos, performed comparably, havnt bought senkos since due to teh high price and the fact that other less pricey models perfrom as well. S Still it has the same kind of "crumbling" charachterstic of Senkos, as aposed to the usually ribbon tail worm texture(most that have uses Senkos will understand my analogy), therefore lack in durability."

Killer Kinami }}}}}}}]]]]}]]}}}}},May 25, 2009
By kulghifrom alexandria , virginia
Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Style/Design
"Another hit from yamamoto so verstile you use it anyway my favourite is whacky style its slim profile and light weight makes it perfect for whacky or finess fishing, caught bunch of fish but you can taxas rig it, carolina rig it, or weightless its deadly red shad is best color but all colors are fine."

an essential part,April 3, 2009
By goldwulffrom windsor MO
"These and the sinkos work great but they get a lot of damage going up the line on a good hit my suggestion is a parasite to keep it from siding up the line as we found out when I went throu a bag of sinkos and him only 3 Kinami baits"

wacky king,February 1, 2009
By Enviedfrom hendersonville Nc
"The flash has a thinner diameter than the senko and it makes the flash have better action when wacky rigged. However if i was fishing it any other way i would use the senko. All in all they are basically the same thing and you will catch fish with both."

Gainesville, FL Fishing,November 21, 2008
By FLGatorfrom Gainesville FL
"A friend of mine introduced me to these worms over the Summer in upstate New York and we had good success. Since then, I started using them in ponds and lakes in central FL. They have been fantastic. I use them Texas rigged with no weight and am amazed how aggressively the bass hit them. Definitely make sure you know how to remove a deeply swallowed hook, because the bass strike and swallow these frequently unlike most rubber worms. Mad Melon seems to be the color that has yielded the most consistent results."

Kinani Flash Worm,July 24, 2008
By ChuckHfrom Glens Falls, NY
"I have been using the Kinani Flash 5" worm for about a year now. I have found it to be one of the best all around baits I have ever used. I usually rig it weedless and weightless using a 2/0 or 3/0 wide gap worm hook, cast it to cover, let it sink to the bottom and then just twitch it every few seconds or so. I have caught quite a few largemouth and smallmouth bass as well as a few pike and pickerel. The pike and pickerel have also hit the bait while I was swimming it back to the boat. My favorite color is the black/blue flake but I have also used and been successful with the red shad, natural shad and baby bass (no longer available). I highly recommend this bait."

Great product Great price,January 24, 2008
By BASSFISHINGMASTERMIKEYfrom sterling heights Michigan
"Recently I was at the the local bps store looking for a good fishing worm, And this Kinami flash worm is it!
I have experimented a lot with the Gary Yamamoto Senkos in the past but I have come to realize that the Kinami Flash Worm is much better.
The Flash Worm is very durable, it has great color selections, and the Flash Worm is much cheaper than the Gary Yamamoto Senko.
My dad and I have caught lots of Largemouth Bass and Northern Pike on these lures.
Overall these lures are great, I will recommend them to everyone."

Works As Well As The Senko,December 19, 2007
By sitrucfrom Mohave County, Arizona
"Kinami baits such as this flash worm will work just as well as the Yamamoto Senko, I am not sure if they are the same company but all Kinami baits work just as well as the Yamamoto line and are a little bit less expensive but just as deadly effective on many species. Give Kinami or Yamamoto plastics a try and you will be hooked for life as will a lot of fish."

The only one,October 13, 2007
By Batofrom Sarasota, Fl
"I have been bass fishing for over 50 years. This lure has been, by far, the most productive. I fish it WACKY style using 5/16" ID rubber o-rings and 3/0 Gamagatsu red circle hooks. Let the worm drop to the bottom then retrieve it slowly by raising the rod tip and reeling in the slack. When you feel the tap tap, let it run for a count of five then slow;y take up the slack. The cirlcle hook will catch the fish's lip and the worm will slide up your line on the o-ring, saving the bait for the next cast. Good luck. You will love this set up."
