Ever Rig a Fluke This Way?

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- A fluke or soft jerkbait with a straight shank-style hook rigged with the point coming out the bottom will keel the bait, which makes it sink naturally and avoids rolling over on the retrieve!

Have you tried it when fishing for shallow or schooling bass?

The fullweed methode 😂😂😂
no doubt
The guarantee method of it will hang up..
😅😂 and you wonder why you are hung up in a log or stump😂
I’m surprised it didn’t get hung up in the video.
@@kvaughn1573only cuz he was watching his lure with a camera 😂
Yes. When I’m looking to donate all my hooks and flukes to the lake bottom
When I first used flukes I set them up like this and never had a problem only switched my setup because people told me it was wrong still catches big fish either way imo
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ianmashaw5003also catches way more big snags🤣🤣😭but no doubt both ways will catch fish
Lmao
It’s a great lure for three of the top fish in the entire USA! Tree trout, limb bream, and grass bass
Branch Breams are a better subspecies in my opinion, don’t forget about log largemouths
Keep letting that hook dangle
Oh and the common snag panfish
@@Lilsmugglernear me they are called pencil-reed panfish
Bark bass too
Yea, it’s my go to if I ever wanna get a stick bass
😂
😂😂
Caught my PB branch with this setup. 60lb braid should pull you up some fatties.
Lol logfisher allday people just trow to mutch in the water. Even pulled up and entire scooter budy with a carp rod
💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao man please!
I know it's an old comment, but PB Branch had me cracking up 😆
Imagine all fallen timber you could catch with this rig
Yes It’s painful and I’m horrible at it lmfao
I’m also thinking that the single hook on the bottom of the lure won’t hook the mouth as good for bass
I tried this once, then I ran out of flukes and hooks
😂
😂😂😂
How many fishes were hook inside its gills? 😂
😂 right
Definitely gonna go through some tackle with that hook exposed like that.
The “when you want to tie a hook on every cast” rig
Hahahaha, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some of my biggest state record tree pounder's have been caught this way.
😂😂😂😂😂
This is my favorite set up when I'm looking for cover.
Caught me a tree pounder
You win

If there’s no snags around, this is hands down one of the best ways. Hooks stick ‘em and action is top notch. For top-water borderline sub-surface it’s fantastic here in Florida.
Remind me to never fish with this dumbassss 😂^^^^^
Works great for open water schoolers.
That said, a traditional straight shank (non ewg) hook set all the way through (i.e. some hook sticking out above the backbone) works pretty much just as well.
Remember that time we rigged those flukes to hook em in the tongue?!
This one made me laugh😂
Best way to kill a bass dead
@@IndianaSmallmouthgood it will still fit on the stringer
@@IndianaSmallmouthright through the brain 🧠!! Explains your comment perfectly!! Brain dead
That's my, "I wanna spend money for stuff later" setup.
No I turn the hook the other way so it's snagless
Saw Matty Wong do this. Effective in predominantly open water, while the bass are gorging on bait fish.
I fish a body of water with minimum weeds here in NY I like exposed hooks more than non exposed. Hook ups are much better
My favorite way to fish a fluke is nose hooked like a drop shot. I use one of them weedless wacky hooks from vmc with the wire weedguard. Works SUPER for 4" flukes with no groove in the belly.
The snag method
Hooks upside down but I’ll be honest, when there limited cover this is the best way to fish a fluke , you’ll rarely lose a fish and the action is way better .
I agree this rig does get me a lot of snags but I also can’t complain because I caught a five pound bass first cast using this.
Yes to try and catch some branches
Help it not roll as much when you fly line like this. You can also experiment with a line through the nose to bottom of head and a treble hooked on the belly 🤙🏼
Yes try Texas rigging it without a bullet weight instead put a split shot about a foot up from the hook and it really gives it that super awesome action bass can't resist
And use a tru turn hook like a plastic worm so the hook is in bedded into the fluke. Its weedless and I've actually won tournaments with this method especially in July in hit evenings when bass are feeding on shad. You'll kill em
This is the best for picky bass and huge pikes 💪💪
Caught 2 decent walleye and a 3lb drum the other day with this setup, took the tip off of a Qtip put it in anise oil and stuck it in the slot on the belly and a half hour later we were having some fun!
Tried this the other day and it legit works. I was skeptical of the hook up ratio but didn’t lose a fish. Obviously wouldn’t throw this in heavy timber but sparse cover it does pretty well subsurface.
I have used a Fluke many ways and caught lots of Largemouth Bass on just about all of them! It's a bait you just can't go wrong with.
Works well in rocky mountain streams for trout but hook up is better in bass habitat
First time I ever rigged a fluke looked like this. Even 13 yo me went "I don't think that's right..."
what’s your method for reeling it in? looks like you pop it upwards, and reel the slack and repeat?
I’ll take a baby slug-go over a fluke any day.
Shhhss, thats my post spawn secret weapon. Caught a 8lber last May using a baby slugo, deadly little bait 🍻
AMEN
Nope .. don't enjoy loosing tackle as it is why would I do it on purpose... Might as well just throw it in the lake without tying it on
Lol wait til you hear about treble hook baits.
losing... loosing is what you do with an arrow
Seriously though, Casey Ashley runs it this way. He has a how to vid on W2Fish talking about it. He fishes it fast on the surface like this for schoolers. Way better hookup ratio. Miss a lot of bites flipping the hook and texposing it. Enjoy!
Listen to that livescope
That's wild
What size jig head u use? Tough to cast being that light?
Yes on a jig head in open water, when I want a faster fall, and for it to stay in the zone longer!
Nope but what I like to do is push a twist lock in the nose of the fluke and I hook it nose first like how you would with a drop shot, in between the twist lock . That way you won’t lose so many flukes . Hook up is pretty good since bass tend to eat prey head first .
Yeah man Randy Blaukat uses this technique for better hook up over open water but wouldn’t recommend using it in cover.
Of course, always actually whenever I want to spend more time picking garbage off my hook point and getting snagged.
I’ve never a better bass habitat before
so, you have to cut the grass first, right?
that's how i rig all my flukes, i also rig it so the hook slides out of the lure n the lure slides up your line too
I have 👍 look how it makes the head stay down.
Looks awesome in the water!
I’ve caught a lot of bass rigging my flukes weightless. One of my favorite ways, been doing it for years 🤷♂️
I had a question what line where u using
Weightless on a spinning rod the first way I’ve ever rigged it i,my favorite way to rig it. Other option would be a Carolina rig. hook coming out the top.
Ewg hook will do the same action. Might not catch the same spot on the jaw or stick, but it will still catch.
Works better with a straight shank 3-0 EWG hook. They can be rigged with a lot less hook exposed than what is shown in the video, instead of the typical 3-0 offset bait holder hook riiged hook on top weedless. Even still its better in open water than in heavy cover or lay downs.
works great. caught my pb largemouth grass on one.
have done it once or twice by accident never intentionally
A snag waiting to happen.
Everything eats the fluke. I once caught a big walleye using a fluke. I've even caught catfish on them. You can add a slip sinker and bounce them off the bottom as well. Also saltwater, red fish, speckled trout, flounder, striped bass, if it eats minnows it will eat a fluke.
Ofcourse! Been doing that for at least 24 years now, definitely kills
Well I don’t like running bottom hook swim baits. That’s how you kill a deep hooked bass. Much better to stick them in the roof of the mouth. I rig mine the traditional way with a slightly heavier wire hook for a faster decent. And a lighter wire hook for more top water and shallow slow sinking effects. Position of the hook in the bait is also key to action.
Thats how I rig em to catch flounder of the bottom😂😂
You don't even have to work it, just slow retrieve until you snag one 😂
@@KELEVRA004 😂
Usually you want the hook in the upper jaw not in the tongue
I have plenty in open water and it’s actually works. Gotta try some crazy stuff to get a win sometimes.
I catch probably 75% of the fish I catch in under 6ft of water on a nose hooked bait but I rig it completely different and use certain paddle tails.
Looks like it produces the same movement as my Shadow Rap 11 when I go extra erratic mode. Just caught a 5.5lb largemouth out of my lil backyard pond the other day doing that and I was shocked because in 20 years I dont think Ive ever caught a bass bigger than 1 or 2lbs out of there. I had no idea there were 5+ lbers in there 🤯
"Fish!?" "No this stupid fluke is stuck again!"
Gotta know your fall timing on this one....loop knot goes crazy on this set up.
Yep. Killed the speckle trout on yhem like this
My anxiety when he gets close to the sticks: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈
Eddystone and regill eel been rigging like this for decades 👍
Just curious as someone who hasn’t fished very long how else would you wig this up?
You can use an offset hook and kind of hook it through the nose and then flip it and come back up to the belly there's normally a slit in the belly on these bait that allows you to do so but other than that that's pretty much it besides a jig head if you're a new fisherman I would say learn the realistic but using this way is not a bad option regardless of what this thread says I've caught Plenty of Fish very nice fish on Riggs exactly like this one if not the exact same thing happy fishing my brother stay safe
I’ll try it. I like nose hooking a fluke with a dropshot hook. I catch more and catch some big crappie on it.
Do this all the time on tiny flukes on a #2 split shot hook
Super slow fall and super frantic action gets them all the time when trying to match the hatch
If you're snagging all the time you're flat out doing it wrong or using it in the wrong cover
Only time I'm losing baits is cause of so many hookups and the occasional bad cast
Yea I do when I’m ready to lose all my tackle. I rig it just like that
Did not try it yet because redoing the fg knot over and over again is not my favorite way to spend time on the water
It's not that bad if you got really good lure control which eliminate at least 90% of the fishing community. Fly fisherman fish with the hook down most of the time.
Lure stays on top of water… not a fluke
@@VELEZPRODUCTIONS63not true. Look at streamers and nymphs
@@VELEZPRODUCTIONS63I don't even like fly fishing, and I know that's not correct.
The new Zoom Snag'O'Matic.😂
It actually works with a bobber though
Looks good for open water, my bud used them on darter jigheads, caught some key fish on them in tourneys..
Crawfish-"Look at what you did to him man!" Eel-"All I did was let him hangout for a second"
I can never escape this video it always pops up I always giggle
Try twitching it across top water and then pausing every now and then
You will be surprised
Great if 100% rock only bottom but in my lakes that are 70-80% soft bottom and weed and pad choked by May 1st an exposed hook luer brings in baseball sized weed clumps on every retrieve every cast every time
My lakes after May 1st its weedless baits or just weeds
Idk if anyone else does this but i take 4 Hooks coming out Top, Bottom, Right and Left. Sometimes u can catch 2 fish.
When I want almost no action and a ton of snags, this is my go to method!
I don't know I tried ringing it that way a couple times but I was afraid my hooksets wouldn't have been very productive considering the hook was on the bottom but I didn't try it long enough to find out
Yes. Bass assassins always upside down.
I definitely top hook with the hook tip nit exposed and always run weightless flukes are a dominant bait in the game but rigging it this way will make sure u lose your bait fast
From getting it snagged??
Yes that's what he is referring to is getting snagged but if you finesse-it properly the most you're going to get is a little bit of debris especially in Open Water you've got to be slow to think that this is going to work in heavy cover so I don't really know if he's just trying to agree with the thread or what but that's the scoop
Buddy almost got snagged
I only use this setup if I need a spare anchor.
Best way to catch a tree pounder
Fish: "damn sure is a line on it ain't it?"
Oh so it fishes like a fluke is supposed to but catches every single thing in sight! So cool
The fluke junior snagger special method
Belly weighted 6/0 offset hook all day, my favorite cheap jerkbait method.
Have a question for all the weedless guys… how do you set up a grub jig to be weedless with a weighted head? Or is it impossible?
You can do this but still have it weedless with a weight on the front
Maybe open water for better hook ups but id still just do the texas rig anyway
Yes....Bass Assassin shad.... almost the same... little more action than this one.... cool video
I’ve always wondered if different colored flukes work better than the normal ones
Idk how everyone is having issues eith this method. One of the best rubber baits out there and very effective
When you can’t get bites, rig this up so you can at least set the hook on some logs
Gotta finesse all the snags.
Fly fisherman approved 😅.
