School of flukes 2025
beginningfisherman reply :
I saw a video yesterday of someone fishing a rig in their pool that looked like a school of soft plastic jerkbaits. It made me wonder if anyone else has tried this out and how you would go about rigging it.

Alabama Rig
beginningfisherman reply :
It wasn’t an Alabama rig because there was no wire frame. The lures were free to dart around however they wanted.
RPreeb reply :
I would think that they'd get all twisted up if just tied to fishing line. Wouldn't there have to be something to provide separation?
J Francho reply :
Donkey rig or double fluke rig. It works.

I kind of thought the same thing. I couldn’t see how it was rigged from the video so I was hoping someone else could shed some light on it. There was 5-6 flukes

Like J Francho said I have used a double fluke rig but even rig that can get tangled up. I couldn't imagine 5-6 flukes unless some are dummy rigs (no hooks).

Here ya go
BassWhole! reply :
I don't fish it for bass, but we use something like the OP is describing for other things. It's called a daisy chain, its just a bunch of hooks palomared or short dropper looped in a row, they can be from 6" to 12" (or so) apart, and you can optionally weigh either the first or last one.

I saw that video they show in small tub?. Look good but not practical, I don't even use double Fluke that often.

I saw this video last year. tried it around shallow weedbeds last summer. it does work and if you rig it like he shows, your baits don't get tangled. I had several violent strikes on this combo

I was on an old MSN forum and this guy kept posting photos of big bass he caught using the Banjo minnow . He had some weird custom rod with wood handles and obviously didnt know much about bass fishing . He was fishing on a rip rap bank of a large lake. If I remember correctly one of those bass was a nine lber .
J Francho reply :
They're doing it wrong. There's no bass in that pool. Try again....
Bent reply :
What a time to be alive, somebody needs to rig up a little family of savage gear ducks. Maybe a bat swarm? A "Plague of Frogs" rig? No wait, 10 Whopper Ploppers end to end, a 1300 size!!! More is better right?
FishDewd reply :
Stop the facebook vid at 1:21 where he tosses it onto the pool deck. It looks like they're basically tied into a daisy chain.

Yeah, a 9 lb bass . He didn't know what he was doing.

+1 What J Francho said - anything more and I'd move to an Alabama Rig .

Think it could be some thing like a tapered leader. I think thats how in fly fishing leaders are. Rigged and pegged in place tied leader going towards the eye. Stiffness to spring out just enough and light enough tip for action? Just trying to figure out what it is exactly.
Nevermind. Theres a video on youtube can see how its rigged.
Bassguytom reply :
I’ve used the double fluke rig and have caught fish with it. I have never fished it as fast as Aaron Martin does. I will be trying that next time out. Thanks for posting that.

Where did you see the video showing how it's rigged?
Thanks!

Got a small lake near me that I wanna try his method on. Seems easy enough to rig up before you head out. Gotta check to see if I got any swivels ????

I kid you not. About 15-20 years ago when my mom searched all over for the banjo minnow to buy for xmas/birthday -the fish shop owner would just laugh at her. Needless to say after 1000's of fish I feel I have had the last laugh as I have outdone many tournament fishermen on the original banjo minnow. I did have swap out hooks and rings- but now I have it down to a science and any type of day it simply will produce.
As for the double fluke- for me has been a line twisting nightmare.
