You should not be using a focusing camera.
🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣
Great tip, many thanks
Great tip. I’ve been pull in the “needle” back through the second time from the front. I wrap the mono around the the head of the needle before I push the rivet into the bait. Just one less step when I’m sitting in my kayak.
Cannot see what you are doing
Size hook
How about some close ups so we can see what you are talking about.
I absolutely love the idea!! As a fisherman that's been using the fluke for over 35 years,best bet I'm trying it.. thanks Mike!!
Love this rigging method. I use a treble hook attached to the main single hook, so it acts like a trailer.
I started using this rigging setup because smallmouths were short striking my fluke, but the trouble was they practically swallowed the treble hook. Make sure you have a long nosed pair of pliers because you are going to need them!
Worst video quality.
Channelize!🤣
Your photographer needs to work on close ups lol
Yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep

I cut a small piece of a chartreuse stick bait, and put it in place of the bullet weight.
What size split ring do you use with a # 4 treble hook.
Flukes hands down one of the best baits to ever exist. From bass in a pond to catching big reds off a beach with a Texas rigged fluke on a bullet weight works for everything.
If you push the stud of the river in from the nose, when it’s through, you can put the body of the rivet over the stud from the bottom and push it up. That way it’s in the right spot. Then pull the stud out.
The Super flukes are the ones that have the hook slot.
Love it i have rivets already so guess ill be using this this week since the fluke bite is on.
This reminded me of getting my eyes dilated at the eye doctor and trying to read my phone every time they zoomed in
Isn't that fluke gonna get snagged alot more with the treble hooks on the bottom?????
Wouldn’t the steel sleeve Frey the line??
I love all these modifications that you teach us… I def gotta try this one
What a nice and simple mod!! Will for sure try this one
Love it!
Now that is excellent tip
One of the best fluke mods I’ve seen yet…
Just had a day like described today… probably around 1 hookset to each 5 strikes and definitely the fish were firing up from depth…
I’ll definitely try this next run on them!
Good work guys!
Finally something that genuinely will improve hooksets!
Well done!
YOUR VIDEOS ARE GREAT, INFORMATIVE & FUN … HAVE A NICE DAY
