I think the have better action and they last for ever, as in you can catch 10 or more fish before they tear up. Only problem is cant find them in watermelon. Can the tails be dipped in dye? Elaztec does not like Dip and Glo or JJs. The elaztec shrinks and shrivels when dipped in that stuff.

They work really well for me weightless or Carolina with a LONG leader. If I’m fishing and not catching anything over 3lbs.... I usually just use super fluke jr

Stephen M Fatherree Outdoorsman S Joined: Mar 2019 Posts: 79 Lake Fork, Texas	Originally Posted by TroyKing I like to fish a weightless fluke most of the time... Is there a better alternative to the zoom super fluke that would be more durable and have more glide to its fall? I personally like using a Yamamoto D-Shad due to the salt content and great falling action but for the longest lasting weightless fluke style bait it is hard to beat a Zoom Super Fluke. These two soft plastic lures are tournament proven and when fished slowly with the correct line size and hook size they all can be productive especially during the spawn and post-spawn season. For clear water and spotted bass a Zoom Fluke has a thinner profile and can entice more bites. Good Luck! Respectfully, Stephen Fatherree
