Actually, I use both but my production models are in Clojure.

I often end up implementing minor things myself using lower level abstractions (e.g., Linear Regressions or PCA with whitening using Matrix libraries) and I check the results and/or try new things using scikit-learn.

So in general, I'd say I do the programming (outputing intermediate CSVs, tests, web service, thread handling, UI, ...) in Clojure(Script), and try other approaches (e.g., other models/parameters/...) in Python.

I'm quite happy with this pipeline but probably to some extent because I really love to understand how things work and nothing pushes you to learn as much as a missing function in your ML library :-)
