Flukes are soft jerkbait-style lures designed to imitate injured or fleeing baitfish. With a darting, side-to-side action, flukes create an erratic presentation that triggers reaction strikes from bass feeding on shad and other forage.

This collection includes soft flukes built for weightless, Texas-rigged, and underspin presentations. Their streamlined profile makes them ideal for fishing around grass lines, points, docks, and open water where bass are actively chasing bait.

Whether you’re targeting schooling fish on the surface or suspended bass along structure, flukes deliver natural movement and versatility that perform throughout the year.
