Default Re: Fluke 6 inch gulp

Hey bud,

I can give my insight on this... When fishing the grubs I do it a few ways depending on my set up, drift speed, and action.

Option 1, fish the grub solo on a long shank hook jig head or buck tail, so the hook is coming out 1/2 inch away from where the curly tail starts. You will miss a lot less short hits.

Option 2, fish the grub on the high hook and leave the bucktail for a smaller gulp or strip. I noticed a lot of bigger fish but I also feed the hook down a good amount so again it's within 1/2 inch from the curly tail.

Option 3, I shorten the grub by about 1 inch with a simple cut. This allows me to fish it on smaller jigs.

I've caught a lot of big fish on these grubs, sometimes adding a strip of meat helps the bite but I've always liked fishing it plain and simple with a lot of action. I noticed it works far better in the ocean then in the bay. However I've landed quite a few stripers on the jig and grub in the back bay.

Good luck hope this helps
