has anyone tried the new fluke tail goby by zoom? Any success, rigging techniques, or secrets to using it?

I used some last year G-Man. I know you won't find many gobies in south Mississippi, but they worked pretty good. I threw them weightless on a 1/0 hook. I rigged it like you would a drop shot bait and just ran the hook through the head. And then I fished it like a fluke. I don't use a sharp jerk with them, but just a little tick with the rod tip. They have a limber back end and it doesn't take much to get an action out of them.

I tried them, but I didn't like them much, just didn't catch many fish on them. When i'm on Erie, my main dropshotting gobies are the Poor Boy's Goby and Goby Jr., and the Strike King Go-B-Gone. The Poor Boy's baits can be purchased here: http://www.economicalbassbaits.com/apps/webstore/products/show/1222130

used both the poor boy's and zoom fluke tails for our bass and wrasse here in the channel islands (sea fishing )both great little baits, fished dead stick for about 20-30 secs, then quick flick with the wrist and shake, most of the hits have been as soon as the bait hits bottom again, fished on 3/8oz football jigs in tough structure and cover using 15lb braid and 18lb flurocarbon leader on a 7ft diawa infeet rod.
