Behold: The Spoon of Wonder
« on: September 24, 2017, 03:03:42 PM »
I am guilty of buying lures that look awesome. So awesome they must catch fish. So awesome that often, they simply don't. I go back to y usual set ups. However, all changed when I found......The Spoon of Wonder. This beauty is two spoons in one. That clearly means twice the mojo. Twice the catching power. Twice the magic. On one side....googly eye black on chrome.....the other side....sparkly googly eye with a uv finish over the cop car ah lah cookies and cream colors. This spoon in the last three trips has accounted for 6 out of 8 kept fish, a few released not by choice, and a chinook released by requirement. It is a two sided marvel. I'll be setting this one aside and using soon some winter blackmouth.

Like all magical lures it will depart you someday.  Especially if you plan on bouncing bottom for black mouth.

When I get a good lure like a lucky K15 or hot Kingfisher spoon I retire them if they make it through a season.  It makes the wall of fame.

I bid farewell to my #1 spoon of wonder, for some reason they quit making Kingfishers in the yellow fish scale.  For chinook, it outfished everything I had at least 5:1 everywhere from AK to Pt Townsend bank down to Buoy 10.  I hooked a nice bubble nook this year and it took a nasty turn at the boat and broke it off.

When you find one, buy a case of them.

Silver and blue cast master... that is the magic spoon
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Don't get caught up on colors.  It's usually the action of any particular lure rather than the color that catch the fish and make it that magical lure.  I have several plugs that have barely any of the paint left on them that outfits everything else still.

Oh Spoon of Wonder. You have provided again. I sent you to the depths while I wallowed in the chop. Your hook sank true and you held strong. Thank you oh Spoon of Wonder.

Silver and blue cast master... that is the magic spoon

The silver/blue Kastmaster and the red/white Dardevle have caught more fish than all other spoons combined.

Unfortunately most people will never understand this, and will spend their lives chasing marketing hype and advertising.

Not salmon, on a downrigger, behind a flasher they haven’t.

The old dardevil was my fav trout spoon.  I should try it one day on the downrigger if I could find one big enough.  Worked for trout, might work for salmon... :dunno:

it's awesome when you have a setup that you believe in and it just keeps catching fish...  :tup: :tup:

Negative.  No additions. I think this one just has that perfect flutter.

As a kid early teen I found one of these lures on the beach. Took it fishing with my dad and his friend, caught a decent blackmouth and in the rush to "help" me land it I took a net handle to the face and had a huge bloody fat lip. But I still outfished the men in the boat.

When we moved to Seattle I turned that lure into an earring, worked as good at catching boys as it did fish.  :chuckle:

True, but if your throwing a lure they can't be beat...

Question... have any of you guys played with home cast version of a cast master? My brother loves to fish, and loves his cast masters. Is it worth me buying his favorite size so that he doesn't curse me when my kid loses his?
