First time I ever fished a fluke (shad color) was in Florida just two weeks ago. Rigged it exactly as shown but used 1/16 oz bullet weight. The bite was "soft" and my other friends didn't catch a thing but I tore 'em UP, now! HUGE HUGE fan of the fluke!
Great tip. I absolutely get fired up about this type of inside info... Just so happens that after half a century of bass fishing, i decided to learn to flip, and been practicing in the back yard. This is perfect bait for me to try on my first flipping excursion soon.
Great vid as usual. I think the best takeaway from this video is to try out your plastics every single way you can. Don’t just use them for the technique they were originally designed for. It’s not that much time and money to just mess around one day when your say flipping a beaver style bait and then throw on a fluke, then a grub, etc. same with a C-rig, powershot, drop shot, Texas rig, etc. It’s not like the fish know how your “suppose” to be using it. One of the biggest pike I caught was from being bored throwing a spinner bait so I started vertical jigging it over the side of the boat like I was ice fishing lol.
Can't ever go wrong with a fluke! I've been fishing flukes on swimbait hooks sense last year. The screw lock hold onto bait & makes them last sooo much longer. Plus u have options of weighted & unweighted hooks. I feel like they have a better bite gap that regular offset.
The pond in my back yard neighbor caught a 13 pound bass on a fluke. Central West Florida. Great video btw I will be at Wally world shortly picking up some hooks and flukes 🙂
My number one confidence bait over a senko, over a dropshot, over anything, is a weightless fluke. Thrown up shallow, skipped under docks, etc. pop pop, pause, pop, pop, pop, pause. I like a caffeine shad, yamamoto flukes, etc. another deadly technique is to powershot a super fluke. A couple of tips i wish randy hadnt shared is this one, and the one of using keitech style baits as flipping baits on a t-rig with pegged weight or on a powershot.
Just for clarification when Randy said that he uses a bobber stop on that rig it's actually a peg-it. Great tip on that fluke rig Randy. Definitely going to try it next time out. The Zoom Super Fluke is one of my favorite baits ... I have caught many many fish on it just swimming it or using as a soft jerk bait. Never thought of using to flip. So next time on Havasu flipping the tulles that rig will be tied on.
man i saw the thumbnail with that screw lock jig head thing and i didnt have time to watch the vid so i was wondering all day what on earth you were gonna do with that and now i watch and it's not in the video🤣🤣
Since you told me about two months ago when you’re done with your Cinco rough it up put it on your net rig well I have been doing that The last two months since you said it, well this morning I figured the day after the rain wouldn’t be too good so I went today between 10 and two I took my fat Albert grub and I squeezed and pushed the hell out of it, and I caught three big bass and the last one I played him out because I flipped into an area that there was no way unless I was jumping in the water I got a move it to a place where I lay down on my chest and you would’ve thought he had a six cents because he just jumped up and smacked me in the face and he didn’t get off the hook and I landed it thank you Randy I don’t listen to too many people when it comes to fission or life I listen to you brother you Matt, Blat, And Edwin Evers and be honest you guys got some good knowledge especially you brother how many fishermen can see they’ve been around for this long I know they are but you know the truth behind the pro life of a pro fisherman I’m a leave it at that fish on brother much success this year
I rig my flukes like that for halibut in shallow water. Actually seen them come up off the bottom 2-3ft to hit the fluke right under the surface on the retrieve back in.
Would love to see some on the water videos. One of your early “how to fish a jig” videos was awesome to see you using it in action, especially when you caught one as soon as you flipped it into a kay-down. It’s more work but could make for good content!
@@randyblaukatintuitive completely understand and by all means, I do understand you put a ton of time into the videos so we do appreciate your tips n tricks. I watch every single one of your videos and am a huge supporter. What I mean by “on the water” maybe if you have 5-10 video ideas then you could take a day and go record all those videos separately. Even if someone else record you on your iphone, that would be cool to see you pitching n flippin in certain situations or showing just how you would work a walking bait or a popper in certain conditions. Then you don’t necessarily have to post all those videos back-to-back, but it would give you extra content to put out when you want to switch it up from the tackle room. Just some friendly feedback, because I know it can be difficult to receive honest feedback sometimes! Either way I’ll keep supporting and watching!
THAT HAS BEEN MY GO TO BAIT FOR 10 YEARS OR SO. LIKE YOU SAID THAT BAIT JUST PRODUCES BITES. I HAVENT PEGGED THE WEIGHT AND FLIPPED IT INTO HEAVY COVER SO NOW I HAVE A NEW TRICK. ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THAT EDGE. THANKS
Ever use it on river smallmouth? I fish gasconade and always looking for something different. Also always wanted to fish tablerock for smallmouth as well
Hey I got great bites today at a pond and landed two little bass in just an hour (great day for me I get skunked 25% of the time) I appreciate the tip for breaking up the salt on the bait it seemed to work great for my trick worm (also I used junebug in the conditions you recommended in another video and I truly believe it helped me out). Thanks for sharing your knowledge base you are catching me fish sir. 🙏🏼
I was fishing home in Shreveport years ago and this guy was fishing who showed me this particular plastic. He showed me how to rig it and all! So I went to Walmart and got me the watermelon red and maybe a weight a little lighter then the one you have…I must say I started catching bass, lol…had a blast, but I do understand why you put the resistance in between the weight..I may not have felt all the bites I was getting 🤷🏾♂️
Wow, I love the fluke but would never have thought to flip it TX style! Thanks Randy, That’s awesome info. Do the usual rules apply for dirty water? Pick a Darker color for contrast?
This is funny i kinda got turned on to this last year by accident. Ran out of the worms i was using and rigged a fluke up. Got 4 nice ones, i thought it was just a FLUKE.
I fish a hot water lake in the winter, I use a fluke jr. rigged with an owner shaky head. I can fish it on bottom or like a damiki rig. Before and after spawn, it kills em.
I throw a white fluke with a weighted hook in deeper water or weightless in shallow situations.. hard to beat for getting bites. I do miss fish on it some though. I think it’s just the nature of the lure since it’s moves so erratically.
I use this same rig with the standard gama 3/0 and a 1/16th ounce weight over rip rap and it works the best out of anything I’ve tried over when jerked over rip rap.
Flukes just work. This guy was working a 4lb bass on bed last week for 3 hours with no bite. I got there and asked if I could give it a shot and all I did was pitch out a fluke that I had nose hooked and popped it over the bed a couple times and she slammed it. He was at a loss for words lol.
A quick tip...instead of buying those t peg rubber just use different size rubber bands until you find that pegs the sinker the best for you...a bag of 100 rubber bands is like $5
Randy can you do a video on how to catch cruising post-spawn bass? I was really frustrated on the water today watching 2-3lbs bass just totally ignoring everything I threw at them.
Great tip , and I ruff up all my soft plastics thanks to you. And check out Roland Martin's ABC of Bank senko fishing for fat, fat bass. You will enjoy it ! Thanks again Randy !
How does this man not have a million subscribers? Come on man! This is the juice baby. Thanks Randy #legend
He probably has a million videos now …
The Fluke is just a great bait, regardless of presentation. Love your video content, always some take away that will help improve the catching odds.

I want to say thank you. This rig here has caught me so many bass!! They can’t resist it
Randy reminds me of my uncle that took me out fishing and hunting with him as a kid. Wouldn't trade that for the world.
I love fishing them on a weightless Texas rig especially when the water is cold! Great winter bait
Great tip. I absolutely get fired up about this type of inside info... Just so happens that after half a century of bass fishing, i decided to learn to flip, and been practicing in the back yard. This is perfect bait for me to try on my first flipping excursion soon.
Rough. Them up, Randy! One of best tricks I've learned from your channel!! And I'm a old 🐕!
Thanks Randy! Will be trying this tomorrow. I appreciate your videos and how thorough you are going through everything. Love the videos 😄🎣
Always love the info you provide. I live at lake Ozark so having info for my zone is a plus. Thank you for your videos.
Always bringing the juice. Thanks Randy
Great tip. Love the fluke and anxious to try it.

You taught me something I wouldn't have tried today. Thanks.
Great info! Thanks for taking us to school!😉
Bobber stopper for weight = toothpick.
Works great, expands in water but, still adjustable to mojo rig or take out

You're the man Randy, thanks for the tip. I use a ton of superFlukes, however, I've never flipped them. Can't wait to give it a try.
They skip under docks surprisingly well too LOL.
I'm going to get out and try this Randy. Appreciate you sir.
I learned if you flip a brush hog with the big wings cut off on a tough day that too is a great way to catch ‘em!
I found this out a couple weeks ago
Great tips I and my father did a very good fishing thanks só much
That's insane would love to see a video of you just catching 30-50fish a day would be awesome
Gotta try it this year.

I’ll try it! Thanks for the tips! God bless!
I've had a lot of success using a weighted (1/8 oz) EWG hook rather than an up front weight. Love the way it moves in the water.
Nice, I’ll give that a try for sure!
Thank you for the tip can I have a update on your finesse jigs 😊

I agree! While I do appreciate the time and effort in the tackle room vids would be nice to get some on the water action

I just started throwing flukes and caught my pb largemouth this morning on one. Sold me on flukes for sure.
I’ll have to try this, especially beings the fluke is one of my favorite baits.
Roughing them up is so obviously genius and I have never known
I hope I have a day like that sometime !
Ever use it on river smallmouth? I fish gasconade and always looking for something different. Also always wanted to fish tablerock for smallmouth as well
Great Channel
I’m in South Dakota and spawn isn’t happening yet but this is what is getting me bass for a week now.

Hey buddy I’m from Springfield, Mo. maybe when I’m in town we can go fishing together! I just got into fishing! So I enjoy all your tips and tricks!

i have found that free-weighted texas rigged flukes were money at my overfished local pond. might have to try this one out tho
I've thought about this. I put a fluke on the back of a light chatter bait and rip it. It gets destroyed by big fish.
That's a good one.
Weightless fluke and wacky rig are the 2 best rigs to use in the spring
I grew up on Buggs Island, I remember those weigh ins lol
Wow, I love the fluke but would never have thought to flip it TX style! Thanks Randy, That’s awesome info. Do the usual rules apply for dirty water? Pick a Darker color for contrast?
Holy cow I’m dumb, always wondered how that style of peg stops worked. I never thought to look it up or go through the weight from the backside🤣🤣🤣
This is funny i kinda got turned on to this last year by accident. Ran out of the worms i was using and rigged a fluke up. Got 4 nice ones, i thought it was just a FLUKE.
Beating up Z-Man baits before using em is "chef's kiss"
I fish a hot water lake in the winter, I use a fluke jr. rigged with an owner shaky head. I can fish it on bottom or like a damiki rig.
Before and after spawn, it kills em.
I do that exact setup but I always snap toothpicks off inside the weight.
I throw a white fluke with a weighted hook in deeper water or weightless in shallow situations.. hard to beat for getting bites. I do miss fish on it some though. I think it’s just the nature of the lure since it’s moves so erratically.
The erratic presentation is what triggers bites. Easily my top 3 lure. Love it.
@@totalannihilation9065 heck yeah! I pretty much always have one tied on. Especially the fluke junior in the early spring or clear water.
@@ScruffyCityFishing Definitely. I have a dedicated set up for flukes too.
White pearl zoom is my go to.
@@totalannihilation9065 same here. I have 5-6 other colors, but most of my luck has been on Pearl.
Done that , works well
I use this same rig with the standard gama 3/0 and a 1/16th ounce weight over rip rap and it works the best out of anything I’ve tried over when jerked over rip rap.
When is the last time you fished it?
A Fluke catches 'em rigged all sorts of different ways. I'll have to remember this tip of your's for sure!
Shhhhh don’t tell the secret😂
Flukes just work. This guy was working a 4lb bass on bed last week for 3 hours with no bite. I got there and asked if I could give it a shot and all I did was pitch out a fluke that I had nose hooked and popped it over the bed a couple times and she slammed it. He was at a loss for words lol.

Randy can you do a video on how to catch cruising post-spawn bass? I was really frustrated on the water today watching 2-3lbs bass just totally ignoring everything I threw at them.
Will do!

SWEEET!!!🤔😳🎣🎣
Flukes rock
What was the point of the screw in head weight? Or was that just to add some pizazz?
Click bait lol it got me too
Heck honestly I watched it twice
Teaser swim bait for umbrellas rig when there are hooks limits.
Hey Randy what situations do you use the black and yellow jig, is it year around color or just for like colder water?
True
An addendum to my earlier post, Randy. What are your thoughts on using a toothpick to peg those bullet weights? Been doing that for years.
Toothpicks work fine
Would watermelon red be just as successful at night at this time of year?
Great videos!
Do you ever Carolina rig a Shad colored fluke?
I bet that setup will work in grassed in ponds.
Do you fish it like a normal flipping bait?
Brent Ehrler used this technique almost won the 2018 classic
30 - 50 bass a day!!! What is this a Banjo Minnow ad?
Is that not just a Texas rig with a fluke instead of a worm?
30 to 50 per day ? Unless your in a stocked pond where can you catch 50 in a day ?
I have a fluke tattoo
Why is there a dummy head pictured in the preview?
Bro you gotta stop with these clickbait titles that aren't true.. getting out of control 🤣
us up north anglers can catch that because its dink bass city
all of em if not all are midget lookin ass bass
😂 if nothing else it gets him comments lol but I agree 😅
Loop knot
Works in the salt as well, same setup. spotted bay bass, calico bass, wreck that rig.
I rerr
Title 1,000,000,000 false lmao woww
