I am in central Florida. I have used the Slug-0, Bass Assasin, and Koo
Minnow with some success over quite a few years. I now use the Super
Fluke almost exclusively for soft jerkbait applications as do most of
the guys I know. Watermelon and its variations (watermelon/red,
watermelon/candy) are the standards.
I usually go to another bait to catch larger fish but the flukes will
catch the big ones too.
Oh Lord, I know that! During the Southern Classic, I watched one sow come
out from underneath some pads and slurp in a Fluke. I ended up losing it,
but I think that was my first shot at a 10 pound plus fish! I ended up with
Big Bass with a 6. 14, but I think the one that I lost could have eaten that
6!
Soft jerkbaits, when worked properly have a fantastic action and they're
tough to pass up for a hungry fish. I've caught largemouth, smallmouth,
northern pike, muskie, crappie and jumbo yellow perch on jerkbaits.
