Have done really well fishing Super Flukes weightless. All the fish have come from the top 2ft of water or less. Was wondering if anyone fishes them weighted (keel weighted hooks maybe) with good results???

I've fished the magnums with a 1/8 weighted hook and did very well. The action it has with the weight is unique. You can actualy make the bait turn around and star decending backwards. It looks like a injured bait fish.

I just jerk the rod up from a 9 oclock position to a 12 oclock position and then let the bait fall with slack line. Pay close attention to your line becouse not all the time you feel the bite.

Go try it you might like the action Iknow I do.

Nope, I've never caught a fish on a weightless Super Fluke.

It's probably the hat.  Take it off and burn it.

I have had good luck fishing weightless flukes in moss and weeds.  I just bring them across the tops of the moss in little short jerks, and then let them fall into holes.  

I've got both my girlfriend and my brother to catch fish on weightless flukes, they work great.  I myself have added weight in rivers to get them to sink before the current takes them too far, and I've had success.

Pretty much fishing them the same way as the weightless ones.

Throw them on a c-rig and watch what happens.

I almost always use 1/8oz weighted shank hooks on my fluke.  I have caught more when weighted than unweighted.  I even caught a sauger on one last fall.

X2 One of my go to baits.

I'll throw them with a swivel for two reasons

a little more weight

keeps line twists down

Thanks, (almost ;D) everyone!!!
