BasshunterJGH Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 What's you're favorite fluke-style bait? I love the Yamamoto d-shads. Recently they've become my go-to lure( after the weightless senko) . Bubblegum is my favorite color works in almost any color water, but I've had the most success in clear water over grass. Broke off a huge bass on one I'm guessing it was 6-7 lbs:D. Amazing lure just wondering what you're favorite is the top shelf schooling minnow looks similar or do u guys like the old zoom fluke? Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 29, 2014 Global Moderator Posted July 29, 2014 Havoc The Jerk or YUM Houdini shad. Quote
mod479 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Depends on where/what I'm fishing. If I want to throw a baitfish color I like flukes in the disco colors. If I want a natural color I go D-shads in GP blue, also like the midnight color for gin clear water....not conventional wisdom, but it works for me. Topshelf makes another awesome bait with a flattened tail that works the really well on a keel weighted EWG hook. I use those in the rapids of smaller rivers and the smallies tear them up.

mod479 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I've got packs of pink d-shads, havent thrown them, they look so odd...gonna crack open the pack this weekend and give them a whirl. Quote

Super User Choporoz Posted July 29, 2014 Super User Posted July 29, 2014 Zoom Super Fluke - they just seem to have the right size, weight and action for me. There are others that seem to look better, or displace water better, etc. But none that I can place as accurately and twitch as well as them. Quote
Arv Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 haven't tried too many, but the SK Caffeine Shad is my favorite thus far 1 Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted July 29, 2014 Super User Posted July 29, 2014 Still the fluke. But love bass assassins and sluggos. 1 Quote
TrapperJ Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Caffeine Shad FTW! KVD Magic is money in my Farm Pond. Quote
Cgrinder Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Caffeine Shad. No more boiling fluke tails for me! Quote
