Fluke Fishing?

[Senko lover]

I use Zoom Super Flukes and Super Flukes Jr., and they are killer baits. My favorite color is Arkansas Shiner, which really imitates a bluegill. I use a 3/0 or 4/0 EWG hook, and have a pretty good hookup ratio. 

 

My favorite uses for a fluke: 

 

-Vegetation: 100% weedless if rigged right

-Laydowns/Logs: It's great for keeping in the strike zone 

-Open water: When bass are keyed in on baitfish, I try to match the size 

 

It's a very versatile bait.

i would suggest looking at another hook , those skip gap hooks are garbage , they will flex so bad your fish will slide off the hook !! in my opinion , worst hook ever made ... sorry   

 

want a killer hook , take a gander at Owner's Rig - n Hook in 3/0 , super sharp and perfect gap for Zoom 4'' flukes ....

 

they've never given me any issues, yet....

I cant tell you the size but I use  big Eagle Claw  Flipping hook's that I picked up several years ago . The only time I use them is when I am fishing on top of slimy , slop  and need to throw a weightless worm , fluke...  .It adds enough weight that I can easily cast it with baitcasting gear . One of the best big fish tactics I found .

I use 4/0 offset round bends with great success, with zoom super flukes or caffeine shads

I pretty much try all the colors but think Watermelon has been best for my lake and funny the water is normally a greenish or brownish. Arkansas has a great flash in my lake. I've done a dip in chartreuse, then with spike it markers, paint the top blue which makes it green and Orange up the belly. I haven't caught a lot with the painted up color scheme but it looks cool like a bluegill, which I thought would've done better.

I like them with the Gomakatsu 4/0 weighted hook (1/16) and my all time favorite is on a 1/4oz scrounger. I just hooked at huge bass on one but lost it at the boat, which I whined about in another post lol.

Same for me. Skip gap books are quite easy to use and rig a variety of baits well. Never had any problems

White is only color I use. 3/0 ewg gama in red

I've also found that heavier line makes a difference. If you must use mono, 17 is the best I've found. You don't want a ton of stretch, you'll have issues driving the hook in with lighter lines. I use braid during the summer, then go back to fluorocarbon or Silver Thread once the grass starts to die, usually this time of year. I superglue my knots to the hook, just to keep it at the right angle, too.
