Super User Teal Posted May 10, 2013 Super User Posted May 10, 2013 Cast, jerk, jerk, pause, jerk, jerk, jerk pause... set hook, reel fish in, take fish off, repeat sequence. Theres no science to it... watch alot of the videos, read what you can, and cast that thing and experiment with it. The Bassresource video above is a great one!! Quote
kylek Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Look in the upper right hand corner for the search box. Type in flukes and hit search. Should be enough info there to keep you busy reading for awhile. 1 Quote
Alex_bassman Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 weightless texas rigged drapped over lillies and casted deep into brush has always worked for me. good luck. Quote
Trailer Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I love flukes. I fish them just below the surface with a color I can see underwater, usualy pearl. I use a 4/0 or 5/0 hook with a screw that I can twist into the nose of the fluke. I find this helps the fluke from sliding and losing its action. Like other guys said jerk, jerk pause. My most recent discovery was the double fluke rig. I like to toss if everywhere in the shallows. Quote
Super User MCS Posted May 10, 2013 Super User Posted May 10, 2013 Rig them weightless and fish them like teal recommended, if that don't work then play around. I found the other day keeping them up on top, and almost steady retrieve would draw strikes. sometimes dragging bottom, sometimes just a big sweep and long pause does the trick. Quote
Trailer Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 If you like a steady retrieve check out the swimming fluke. I has a paddle tail. Quote
bassboy13 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 thanks for the help everyone im gonna get out tomorrow and see if i can get a few Quote
derekxec Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 that video is great...thats how i do it mostly unless im fishing very close to the bank i use it with a small bullet weight and i jerk it once let it sit for a sec then repeat works great too really just go out and fish with it and try out every kind of way even if you think its crazy cause you never know you might even find a better way Quote
