@Paragon Fishing - Thanks for leaving the comment, and great question! For best results, I've found that doing quick/short twitching action with the rod tip generates that most strikes. Quicker during summer months and very slow during cold snaps. Let us know if you have any other questions. Fish On!

My left ear really enjoyed this video

The extra holes made while rigging kinda weakens an already soft plastic bait. We like to use a very fine point magic marker and make a dot exactly center on the fluke where the hook will go in. Same idea here but instead of a guess with a finger or thumb use a small magic marker.

I don't do any saltwater fishing but this is a good video tip for those who do saltwater fishing.

Hey Melinda, thanks for leaving a comment. Yes, these Zoom jerk baits are a great for both anglers who go after gamefish in fresh or salt water. I started using them on the saltwater flats, but now it's my favorite bait to use when bass fishing too... they can be very weedless by simply burying the tip of the hook into the soft plastic body when fishing heavy cover.

my bass rod is medium heavy and the lure wt. is 1/4-1 oz, do you think i could put a 1/2 oz worm sinker with a the same lure thats 5" long without the weight of the sinker and lure being over 1 oz?

great vid for me, just started bassin'

Thanks for leaving a comment. Yes, these Zoom Super Fluke jerk baits are awesome for bass. Be sure to give them a shot next time you're on the flats too... they work great for snook, redfish, trout, and tarpon. Fish On!

Nice Vid. Thanks for sharing. Are they scented? If not, do you use any scent on them?

+On Day Five Fishing (OD5 Fishing) The Zoom super flukes have some scent... not overly strong, but works so I don't mess with adding anything else.

Can you do a video on all worms for rigging

Bass love the green pumpkin and pearl white super salt. Great for shallow water.

Will this bait work with a jighead?

Awesome..thanks

How would you work this bait? Awesome vid by the way!

Is 3/0 owner kind of small? Because I see most people prefer 4/0? How many lbs is your test line using zoom fluke?

I have best results with the 3/0. Here's some fun footage of this 3/0 weighted hook helping catch a slam while exploring a new region even with a crazy dog on the boat:) www.saltstrong.com/fishing-tip/clearwater-fishing-report/

Perfect video but next time include the knot you use and that would make a complete video and mention the hook size. I rewind to look at the package. Thanks for a good video!!

Have you tried Zman PogyZ, PaddlerZ any?

***** Yes, I have tried some Z-man baits (Jerk Shadz and Minnowz)... both were effective. I personally prefer Gulps in most situations though because they seem to get more strikes (only downfall on Gulps is that junk fish tear them up), but the Z-man baits are good to have on hand because they are very strong.

Yeah tried them b/c of course made in USA just like DOA, which I give my support to first. Caught my first trout, redfish, snook, black grouper, flounder, smorgasbord of fish on DOA lures. But I also like Zoom baits for bass, Zoom jerk baits work on saltwater fish to. Heard Gulp! will catch you fish. And pinfish from your video to have as live bait. Pieces of it. Rather catch them on my own than buy them. Pinfish in 3-4 feet flats grass to catch them right?

Does it matter what color the flukes are

@Saltstrong

6 жыл бұрын

Color does matter, but not nearly as much as the action it has in the water... so spend more time making sure that the retrieve style is looking good than trying to find the perfect color.

Just to confirm - Fluke is a jerk bait. You mentioned to use a loop knot. Is that correct? A loop knot would prevent it from jerking. My understanding is that we should instead use a direct tie.

@Saltstrong

Yes, a loop knot should be used for lures like jerk baits because the allow the lure more freedom of motion. Here's our favorite of all the loop knots we've tested out so far: www.saltstrong.com/articles/non-slip-loop-knot/

You can use these for freshwater too right?

Absolutely! These Zoom super flukes are my favorite lures for targeting bass... they're especially effective when fishing heavy cover because they can be rigged weedless by embedding the tip of the hook into the soft plastic. Tight Lines!

Salt Strong do you have a video on how to rig them with a worm hook cause I keep accidentally tearing them when I do a Texas rig. Could these work with trout if not what do you recommend?

@Saltstrong

I used these super flukes on worm hooks for many years, and they catch way more fish with the weighted hooks shown in this video. So I highly recommend not even messing with the worm hooks with these baits.

where can i find them hooks?

@Saltstrong

They are tough to find. Bass Pro typically carries them. And if you happen to be in Tampa, then I highly recommend Southeastern Tackle Liquidators for finding these hooks for rigging super flukes.
