nice job with the bait ,i think youve earned the title masterbator ha ha

[benandmichelledotnet]

HAHA, sometimes that would be more productive I'd bet!

i use that same fluke except its watermelon green with a no1 bass hook and no weights and flip it around under logs and brush for bass(largemouth), never gets hung up and i,ve had a ton of luck with flukes!

@smoothcriminal997 I've had luck right off of big drop offs and points in deeper water. Also, rig it weedless and pitch it into gaps in weeds and lily pads.. You may also want to use a small sinker above the bait, it makes for some eratic action, and helps if you are in deep water, or the cover is especially thick.
