Title: my new fluke rig
Post by: brijones1 on February 17, 2009, 08:43:29 PM: I found the 3oz bodies at cabelas yesterday and thought they would be awesome to try for fluke. I attached a teaser that I made and bam, easy rig to make and easy to change teasers with the swivel.

Post by: Luna Sea 5 on February 17, 2009, 11:20:39 PM: the only thing I may change, but too hard to tell by the pic, is shorten the distance from the hook to the jig.

Post by: ped579 on February 17, 2009, 11:22:01 PM: Maybe not, I have seen some old rigs like that and the distance is about the same and they worked well back then.

Post by: brijones1 on February 18, 2009, 05:49:44 AM: The bodies come in a 1/2oz up to 3oz, they have the chain/swivel attached already. I used a 4/0 octopus hook.

Post by: gottog on February 18, 2009, 11:16:29 AM: Just gotta see how it acts when you have a fluke hooked on. Could cause it to spit the hook easier or maybe not.

Similar to how we tie on a stinger hook to a bucktail or replace the hook on a chromeball jig, so should work well for you chrz
