The Zoom Super Fluke Jr 4″ is the compact version of the legendary Super Fluke a split-belly soft jerkbait that produces a dying baitfish action on the jerk-and-pause retrieve. The split belly design is the key: it allows the bait to be rigged weedless for fishing through cover, or threaded onto a darter head, jig head, or scrounger head for a fully exposed hook presentation. On a scrounger head, pop it or swim it subsurface when gamefish are feeding on baitfish. On a darter head, work it with sharp twitches and pauses for a darting, wounded baitfish action that triggers reaction strikes. 10 per pack in 8 colors.
Key Features
- Split Belly Design Weedless or Exposed Hook Rigging The split belly is the defining feature of the Super Fluke; the belly slot allows the bait to be rigged weedless with the hook point tucked into the split for fishing through grass, laydowns, and shallow cover without snagging; the same split belly also accepts a darter head, jig head, or scrounger head for a fully exposed hook presentation when fishing open water or around sparse cover.
- Dying Baitfish Action Jerk-and-Pause Retrieve The soft jerkbait profile produces a darting, wounded baitfish action on the jerk-and-pause retrieve; on the jerk, the bait darts and flashes to one side; on the pause, it glides and slowly sinks with a subtle shimmy that mimics a dying or disoriented baitfish; the pause is often when the strike occurs as bass commit to the bait on the fall.
- Scrounger Head Subsurface Baitfish Presentation Thread the Super Fluke Jr on a scrounger head and pop or swim it subsurface when gamefish are actively feeding on baitfish near the surface; the scrounger heads bill produces a wobbling action that complements the Flukes soft body shimmy for a highly realistic baitfish presentation.
- 4″ Compact Profile 10 Per Pack The 4″ Jr size matches smaller baitfish profiles (shad, shiners, small perch) and is effective when bass are keying on smaller forage or when a more compact presentation is needed; 10 baits per pack.

Best For
- Weightless Weedless Shallow Cover & Topwater Rig weightless with the hook point tucked into the split belly and work through shallow grass, laydowns, and over submerged vegetation; the weightless Fluke sinks slowly on the pause, producing a gliding, dying baitfish action that triggers strikes from bass holding in shallow cover.
- Darter Head Open Water Jerkbait Thread on a 1/83/16 oz darter head for a subsurface jerkbait presentation in open water; work with sharp rod tip twitches and pauses; the darter head keeps the bait in the strike zone at a consistent depth while the Flukes body produces the darting, wounded baitfish action on each twitch.
- Scrounger Head Schooling Bass & Surface Feeding Thread on a scrounger head and swim or pop subsurface when bass are schooling and feeding on baitfish near the surface; the scrounger heads wobbling action combined with the Flukes shimmy produces a highly effective baitfish imitation for schooling bass situations.
- Dock Skipping The 4″ compact profile and weightless rigging make the Super Fluke Jr ideal for skipping under docks and overhanging cover; the flat body skips easily across the surface and the slow sink on the pause triggers strikes from bass holding tight under dock structure.
