🎯 Best Fluke Rigs for Northeast Fishing

Fluke (summer flounder) are ambush predators that sit tight to the bottom. The right rig makes the difference between missed bites and limits.

• ✔ Keeps bait in the strike zone
• ✔ Adds visibility in murky water
• ✔ Increases hook-up ratio with multiple presentations

If you're serious about catching fluke, your rig matters just as much as your bait.

⚙️ Types of Fluke Rigs

Floating Drift Rigs

Designed to keep your bait just off the bottom where fluke can easily see it. Perfect for drifting over sand, mud, and light structure.

Hi-Lo Fluke Rigs

Two hooks mean two chances to hook up. A proven setup for targeting fluke in deeper water or when fish are stacked.

Bucktail & Teaser Rigs

Combines the action of a bucktail jig with a teaser above it. One of the most effective setups for aggressive fluke feeding.

🧠 How to Choose the Right Fluke Rig

• Shallow Water (10–30 ft): Floating rigs or bucktail setups
• Deep Water (40+ ft): Hi-lo rigs for maximum coverage
• Strong Current: Heavier bucktails + teaser rigs
• Slow Drift: Add more action with teaser rigs

Matching your rig to conditions is the key to consistent catches.
