My brother-in-law swears by this method (use a 1/0 Gam Wide Gap Finesse Hook-similar to a drop shot or octopus hook). I have had success also, but I am not a fan of flukes. If you are try the Case Plastics sinking minnow, very good baits and reasonably priced as well.

I use circle hooks and nose hook almost everything on C-Rigs and it works just fine.

I nose rig mine on jackall ishad weighted hooks it was my go to this year 1/4oz with a white fluke they couldn't resist em

I use a gamakatsu o'shaugnessy offset hook 1/0 to nose rig my super flukes. PondBoss best advice I can give you is if you look on the back of a superfluke, you will see a small dimple (or small tiny hole) and I run my hook thru that. In general, I can fish all day on 3 or 4 baits. Catching fish will tear it a little each time, but generally it slides up the line and if you are careful you can slide it back down and it will still be fine. I lose more thru continuous throwing I will have the occassional occupational hazard ( just tear it thru and it slings off) Sometimes you will catch 10 fish on one and sometimes one fish will tear it off. Don't let that stop you from throwing it, it is a deadly rig!

I tried this today and caught 3 fish on about 10 casts. Sadly I won't be using this technique anymore. After loosing a bait on every fish, it seems like it would get expensive to fish on a consistent basis.
