Zman plastic is super soft and therefore not very weedless even on EWG.

I fish flukes exclusively with spinning combo. I use 12 pound leader at minimum with FG knot. I also target pitch and drop vertically around pole timber using a 1/16 oz pegged bullet weight on the nose. I need a vertical fall and use underhand pitching (some folks call it 'plinking') often using spinning gear. The small amount of extra weight helps casting distance. I used a 7'4" - 7'6"rod and a size 30 reel with high vis braid main line.

I like it!! Recently I have been having a lot of success fishing a fluke on the free rig pitching around cover and structure like submerged timber and bridge pilings in the winter. Sounds an awful lot like “plinking”. Thanks for tuning in!!

Use a split ring on the horizontal line tie
@HookLife Ай бұрын
I prefer the direct tie personally
@andrewsales5417 Ай бұрын
@@HookLife im meant to say use a split ring for swim jigs that have a horizontal line tie so you can still use the queens tackle switch blades
@HookLife Ай бұрын
Yeah man! AND any time you introduce the split ring you get way more hunting erratic action, BUT less head knocking and actual chatter…

@HookLife 3 ай бұрын
Head shape and hook triangle and placement matter quite a bit when using these queen Tackle switchblade. I do not like the way that the blade contacts the head based on the shape of the head, and the position of the line tie on the head.
@closcruz81 3 ай бұрын

The stupid tube is nice but if you’re tube gets tore you have to cut the line every time you need to change it but I found an awesome way to fish a tube weedless, the Trokar TK190 tube hook and regular Eagle Claw tube hook is a bit cheaper but it’s the same hook just sharpened differently but you can rig it Texas rig style and change your tube anytime you want
@HookLife 3 ай бұрын
That’s a good hack! I find that tubes are pretty durable and hold up to damage way better than most plastics, but…. Your right having to re-tie is a pain in the ass. Every time I have ever Texas rigged a tube it tends to have a different fall and does not spiral on the fall. Have you experienced that with that hook?

@HookLife 4 ай бұрын
1. I feel like the fish can see the braid. 2. I like the little bit of stretch the leader gives me while fishing single hook baits. It comes with a downside as having another knot in the system is like having a chink in your armor
