I'm about to give fluke fishing a shot and have a question
on fluke rigs.

I have a Fin Strike fluke rig which consists of a 3- way
swivel with a 4' length of mono attached to one of the
eyes and a plastic skirt, a spinner blade and a couple of
red beads attached to the other. The second eye has a
clip that I figure is for a banks sinker, and the third eye
is the connection to main line. Has any one had any
luck with this type of rig?

I was thinking of eliminating the 3-way swivel, and the
sinker, and substituting a spro barrel swivel with a short length of mono and using a Smiling Bill type jig in place of
the sinker, then tying the 4' length of mono with the skirt
to the same side of the swivel.

Any thoughts?
