Spinners and Spoons Lures


Classic Spinners and Red/White Spoon


Spinners and Spoon can also be categorized under top water lures. They both imitate baitfish (for the most part) and quite effective as other fishing lures.


Spinners Lures


When spinners is retrieved, the blade spins around the body of the spinner at a very fast rate emitting a great amount of vibration and flash mush like a baitfish in distress. Different shapes and thickness of the blades determine the rate of speed of the blade and how far away from the shaft it spins. Basically there are two types preferable for moving water and still water use. Spinners are best to use and excel in a stream. Spinners start spinning as soon as they hit the water because of the current. Angler can stand in one spot and fish the spinner throughout the water column downstream or upstream; pausing the retrieve in the area that may hold a fish may ensure a good strike. Reel just quickly enough to spin the blade while steering the spinner with your rod tip.

Spoon Lures


Are thin, rounded piece of metal. Spoons are also called wobblers for their side to side movement in the water when retrieved. The spoon design reflects a lot of light and flashes brightly in the water when retrieved imitating a fleeing or distressed baitfish. Spoons cast easily and accurately because of their density. They cut right through any wind present and can travel a good distance through the air. This weight allows spoon to sink to the bottom quickly although they can be fished at any depth.
