I have never really fished a fluke before but i am seeing a lot of post show what kind of fish you can catch with them. just wanting to get some advice on how to rig them and how to fish them any help would be great.

I usually use the white pearl with a 3/0 or 4/0 EWG weighless texas rig just about anywhere. twitch and let sit they often hit it on the fall

white pearl weightless with a 4/0 gamakatsu superline hook. fish it in grass, by stumps, or near brush. Biggest bass I've ever caught on a fluke was 6.5

Weightless watermelon red cant beat it in the grass or on a carolina rig. I agree, just make sure if you fish it weightless you add a swivel about 12 inches above your hook.
 Wish All Fair Weather And Tight Lines!

Weightless as mentioned, or belly weighted hook. i use 1/16, 1/8, and sometimes 3/16, depending on how deep i'm fishing. Use like a jerk bait. Great erratic action.

You can fish a fluke however you want to. Weightless(my favorite), Tx rig, Carolina rig, dropshot, shakey head, and anything else you can think of.

I like to fish em with a weighted peti-lock so they'll stay just under the water almost like a stick bait, but you can stop it, and the fall is great, it will shake going down.

Weightless watermelon red with a touch of chart. on the tail or smoke shad depending on what forage is around. Got a 9.1 on it during the bream spawn! Great bait to fill a limit.
