How to Rig and Fish The Zoom Super Fluke Style Lures

[@fortunateson2827]

Secondary Motion has revolutionized my Bass Fishing! Thanks bro!

[@rawrfishing]

Hotness! What are your favorite lures that have these motions for them finicky bass?

[@Tbowie13]

I know this is an older video, but a double fluke rig works great. It mimickes a couple shad mirroring each other, how they do in real life. I make the shorter of the two lines on a swivel so it slides on the main line above the swivel for the lower fluke. And I put one on a superfine hook and one on a regular egg of the same size as the superfine hook. That way, one runs lower and the other higher...it works very well. At times, if you get into a school of bass, you'll hook up with fish on both flukes! That one sliding swivel makes it so they don't pull against each other and break off. Anyhow, good video buddy, good fishing to ya!

[@rawrfishing]

Done it before ! Two bass at once Is super epic!

[@cyn7434]

Great instructional video

[@rawrfishing]

Thx I appreciate it

[@BobbyLearnsBassin]

Sweet tips dude, appreciate you sharing! Never tried a loop knot with these before, will have to try it!

[@rawrfishing]

no problem man! the past 2 years I have been exploring the Kreh's Loop knot. It was until this year when I learned my mistake of tying it is when it just BOOMED and allowed me to get more fish. I will give this lure and knot more time this fall season to showcase how much fish you can catch on it. I know i have done it this spring for snakehead and bass, but I have a feeling this fall will be BANGING! thx for watching!

[@nolatrucker7593]

I just got a pack im gonna try thanks for the tips

[@boogiekush9391]

Only been fishing a few months and have found some great chanel's but this one is different! The amount of great information along with an amazing explanation . Thank you so much I will be subbing 👍🏾

[@rawrfishing]

Thx for the kind words. Enjoy your stay and my library of videos! Got a ton ;)

[@josephmuckensturm9581]

Z Man will melt period regardless if mixed with other plastics. I had some zman nedrig baits pb and j in my tacklebox and they melted together. Do not remove them from the plastic bag. Thanks for the video brother. I'm in Columbus Ohio but I am hoping to move to Florida so I can fish all season long. Peace

[@rawrfishing]

Oh yeah. If u put the plastic into a box, the box is plastic too. Oils from other plastics that were in that box can also speed up melting. I always keep it in the original bag lol. Wish you the best on the move and enjoy the fishing life!

[@InfantryOutdoors]

Nice job. I love the fluke. You really can't beat it. So many ways to rig it and fish it.

[@rawrfishing]

thx man! there's many rigging styles for sure. I personally like this one the best and have put me on some awesome fish throughout the years :)

[@InfantryOutdoors]

@@rawrfishing I mostly fish it weightless. That seems to be the best. Hands down favorite lure.

[@rawrfishing]

saltwater anglers be killing it with a light jig too. probably gonna do that in the future :)

[@InfantryOutdoors]

@@rawrfishing I have been trying to get to saltwater for a while but haven't had the time. Flukes kill down here. Hopefully I will get some in before the years end.

[@rawrfishing]

if u can, give it a shot! i don't fish salt much but i may consider.

[@1MoreFish]

Awesome tips!!! Thanks

[@rawrfishing]

You are so welcome!

[@JerseyJoel]

I gotta try the fluke again I haven't had any luck on it so I'm not confident that's why I stick with the senko worm. I have heard a lot of guys do great with it though so I will give it another try.

[@rawrfishing]

you can fish the fluke like a senko, but you can fish the fluke better than a senko when you use it to actively search for fish! it is a killer fall lure if you use bait colors like white and shad !

[@JerseyJoel]

@@rawrfishing Awesome thanks brother I will definitely try it again!!

[@rawrfishing]

yeppers, love to see how you make out of it since you make videos too :P

[@KhanhNguyen-mz5xe]

Do you catch lots of snakehead with flukes? If so, do you used weighted hooks and what is your confidence color?

[@rawrfishing]

I catch a ton in spring with them fished weightless and on braided line. Colors don't really matter... but white. Pink and green pumpkin been my favorites

[@jerryharris8049]

Cool video...thanks for the tips.

[@rawrfishing]

U bet my man

[@bitenbass]

I use light line too for better action. 6lb yozuri

[@rawrfishing]

for the braid? Main line gotta be thicker for the loop and also to prevent pickerels and snakeheads from biting the line off lol

[@bitenbass]

raWr Fishing yup no braid..but yes pickerel will get ya sometimes here in nj

[@rawrfishing]

yeah i'll pass on that, need thicker line for better hooksets and durability lol

[@fett2002]

Great video, Jimmy! The loop knot, in particular, is a great tidbit. Do you ever fish the fluke with an octopus hook through the head? (Usually, you put one of those screw things in the head first and then put the hook through that). The idea, if you're not aware, is that fish generally will take the head in it's mouth first. I think for largemouth this really doesn't achieve anything but other species it does.

[@rawrfishing]

thx Mike, oh that's pretty cool. I may try something like that this fall when the weeds dies down a bit. How how do you keep the twist lock on the hook?

[@fett2002]

bury the twist lock into the head of the fluke til it's almost flush and then use an octopus hook through the eye of the twist lock.

[@rawrfishing]

gotcha! i'll give it a shot one day!

[@FlatOutBankAngling]

First off I want to say.... love that jersey! Great video Jimmy. I have always carried flukes but I have not caught a fish on them. I have become a better angler the last couple of years so I have more faith in myself. So I have some flukes I will be using in the next couple of weeks. Most shad colored ones. I think with fall coming up the shad colors should be good. Tight lines

[@rawrfishing]

that jersey is certainly awesome! I love the outdoors and I love fishing and with that said, I must protect myself from the outdoor elements. Mosquito and harmful UV rays got nothing on me when i wear my Gillz gears ;). yes that'll be perfect for fall! if you need to fish it deeper, try using a split shot or use swimbait hooks with the twistlock and the weight molded onto the shank of the hook!

[@BlueCollarFishing]

Have a lot of luck with them ? I haven't used them yet but I have tremendous success with the Berkeley gulp alives and they look similar.

[@rawrfishing]

oh yeah, they have been one of my favorite lures since back in my teens, and that's 20 years ago!. Gulp does make a similar one for sure. Bass Assassin, Strike King, Keitech, you name it! the soft plastic jerkbait been proven so successful that there are literally every big company out there with some sort of variation.

[@rawrfishing]

even if you stick with Gulp, you can certainly utilize the Loop knot to have better action :)

[@104silvae]

The first bass i caught on the fluke was on the drop. Casted it and my line started to run, set the hook and got my first fluke bass. Second fluke bass was way cooler because it followed in the fluke, it was following its every move until the fluke went in the shadows and the bass destroyed it. Flukes are super fun. Personal favorite is the fluke jr in shad or pearl color.

[@rawrfishing]

That's awesome man! It's a great lure and will bring great memories for those who uses it :) thx for watching and I hope the tips I shared will get u on more fish this fall

[@AnubhavAnkitGeorge]

how did u feel to set hook for snakehead fishing when this fluke is in subsurface area. just make some compairetive clip on fluke in weedy area subsurface vs topwater frog. which one get more strike for snakehead. here in India we don't have bass fish

[@rawrfishing]

i usually watch if i fish sub surface. you can always see them snatch it! i set the hook immediately then. I can certainly consider doing that for next season as I haven't targeted snakehead much this year. They are invasive around my area and they have been the hot target species, so they are hit pretty hard. In my opinion, early spring time fluke will always be better than frog lures!

[@AnubhavAnkitGeorge]

why i m asking u my friend because here in India people use live mole cricket as hook bait and snakehead take this bait in more number 6-9piece whereas we get on topwater frog 1-2 snakehead a day so i think fluke may work well but i don't know when to set the hook kindly make some clip on youtube soon there is no video as such thank u

[@rawrfishing]

@@AnubhavAnkitGeorge no doubt. I have way more luck with the weightless fluke as it's a smaller profile than the frog and because you can fish it top, subsurface or even at the bottom. Early spring i have use soft plastic craws and drag/bounce at the bottom and still catch some good snakeheads. In the summer, this is also the case for deeper water near stumps and fallen trees. I just fish them like i fish for bass. Topwater fishing is great because you can see the action, but in reality, you catch more doing other method of fishing. tightlines and thanks for watching!

[@josephnywayfarer1345]

Thanks for the tips. Gonna try Flukes again this fall. I finally caught a fish on one yesterday but it was as a chatterbait trailer so it doesn’t really count. Or does it...

[@rawrfishing]

thx man, sure why not? people rig flukes in many different ways. I would put one on a chatter bait for sure!

[@hudsonr.743]

I enjoy hearing you say "water column"

[@rawrfishing]

do sound funny? :O

[@hudsonr.743]

@@rawrfishing oh no. It's just oddly satisfying. Thanks for the rigging tips also. Found out I was fishing with it the wrong way all day.

[@rawrfishing]

lol, let me know if there are any other words. I think that there are many ways to fish it! the question is which one is the effective one during your fishing trip ;)

[@Shurmash]

Can a fluke be effective in stained to murky water?

[@rawrfishing]

It depends how stained and murky and deep. Shallower waters is fine. I often use it near structure. U can always use fluke with a chatterbait style bladed swim jig!

[@scscout65]

Great tutorial and tips!

[@rawrfishing]

Thx, it's a great time to use em right now!

[@willwailes9298]

Believe it or not, flukes work really well for trout. In my area, there's big brook trout that like to hide in timber. You're not going to get to them with a normal jerkbait, and if you do, they'll hang you up. I've caught 5" trout on 4" flukes as well. They've got pretty big mouths, so it's no problem hooking them with a #1 worm hook.

[@rawrfishing]

oh wow, i don't have any big trout like that my way. but i would bet! I use the zoom tiny flukes for trout fishing tho. it works pretty good LOL

[@willwailes9298]

Big for that stream is like 1lb. There's some giants in other places around me though. People catch double digit browns and bows every year. Not me yet, unfortunately. :'(

[@rawrfishing]

lol, i would love to fish waters with those big browns and bows!

[@rawrfishing]

I never heard of the improved cinch knot... however, i am familiar with the Improved Clinch knot and many other knots. Where i don't see is how you can turn the Improved Clinch knot into a loop knot. In the most recent months, I prefer the Kyrston Loop knot!

If you are fishing weightless, check your rigging. If you don't insert the hook perfectly straight into the nose, it can twirl, dive down or shoot up!

@@rawrfishing okay thank you! I'll check and make adjustments. I just cannot seem to get it. And apparently that's what everyone is catching on. I'm new to bass fishing and fresh water in general. I've always been a salt water/deep sea person. So this is an entirely different ball game for me.
