Fluke Rigging Tricks From Shallow To Deep! (You Need To Try The Nose Hook)

Soft jerkbaits are amazing! If you know how to adjust your rigging you can fish a fluke as a topwater, just below the surface, or 20+ feet deep. You can fish it in the deepest cover on heavy tackle, or in open water on your lightest spinning rod. These baits are incredibly adaptable and will catch fish in every lake around the country! If you're not taking advantage of the Fluke's ability to catch fish this time of year, you're missing out!

The power of the fluke is its adaptability. In today's video Tim shows how you can use different rigging and different brands of soft jerkbaits to achieve different actions and reach different depth ranges. There are dozens of brands that make soft jerkbaits and a variety of hooks that can work, but today we're providing you with our EXACT components so you can fish with confidence when you head to the lake.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits (including our favorite colors), exact hooks, and rigging components for each method. We've also included our favorite gear for fishing these baits in different scenarios. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
