Hi, I am U.S.C.G. Captain Edward Canelli a.k.a Flukehead. I came up with this one of a kind lure. What makes it so special is a combination of size, shape and the deadly trailer hook. The lure comes in 3 oz. and 6 oz. The colors are white, pink, chartreuse, blue and green. The jigging imitates a squid rising and falling in the current of a given water column. When strip bait is added it is deadly. It not only catches Fluke. Stripers, Blues and Sea Bass find it irresistible. The lure surely makes up for what could be a slow day of fishing. The lure is 4 years old and has proven to be a very effective tool in our arsenal. Anglers who own the lure are already reordering. That tells us these Flukeheads are catching fish and there making sure they don't run out!

Check out these reports!

5/26/05 Ed, I started using your lures last season,since then I have gone from catching 2lb fluke to doormats. I consistently catch 4lb plus fluke, my biggest being 8lbs. Last season I took first place in a fluke tourament in stratford for 800.00 bamm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!These lures kick ass!
Last sunday 5/22/05 I fished long island and I do not
know the area that good. I stayed next to the head
boat and caught 12 fluke 3-6lbs.The head boat was
catching all shorts.

Got my flukehead jigs a little over 3 weeks ago and haven't had much success with them till this past Tuesday, August 12th.....Put in at keyport harbor in NJ ....Drifted ambrose channel (off of breezy point NY) on my 19ft cc aquasport (T.N.T.).... hammered these 2 jumbos within 4 drifts of each other on the flukehead jigs (pictured above)  with large spearing on the hooks......fish weighed at crabbys in keyport NJ and went 10.1 and 8.6 lbs respectively....
Thanx again....

5/22/2003 Hi Ed, love your web site, we need to contact your web master! I see your Flukehead lures every where! The biggest fluke so far has come up on a pink Flukehead with a dressing of squid and golden shiner, How big well it was only 5.6 lbs but that fish was caught in Middle passage in the Norwalk Islands. There here! We are loading up on 18" to 25" fish on the L.I. side and when the weather has not been good we fish the Islands. The fishing on the CT side is much slower but the fish are big!

6/23/2003 Ed, I finally got a chance to go out fishing and try the Flukehead lures on Saturday. Went out to 11b and within 2 hours caught about 18 blues and stripers with 4 of the stripers 28-30 inches. Tipped the lure with squid strips. Stripers mostly hit with the lure on the way down and the blues on the way up. Amazing couple of hours.

Thought you would like to know.

 6/9/03 Ed- John and me took our women out to Greenport SAT/Sunday and did some fishing both days (were you at long sand shoal on Saturday around noon...does your boat have a name on her yet?) Anyway, I hooked into a 21.5" Fluke in Greenport with your green and pink lure (we call it Miami Vice). Didn't stand a chance once I hooked him.

6/9/03 Ed, Franco and I fished Can-9 last Saturday with slim pickings. We did manage to pick up one that weighed 4.76 lbs. Fishing was really show, so we headed for Port Jefferson's Can-11. As we pulled up to the can, we saw one fisherman bringing in a nice sized fluke. We made two passes and I hooked into a flattie that went 5.12 lbs. Yes, it was caught on your new lure. I used a 3 oz. solid green with a long strip of squid. I also sweetened the lure with a nice sized chub. We have been having good luck with the lure . . . thanks for the sample. . . I will be calling you soon, as my son-in-law and I want to take his two boys out for a fishing trip on your new boat . . . can't wait.

Talk to you soon . . . Dave Battistoni
