Anyone else, or am I the only not-so Richie Rich? LOL
Anyone else ever try out one of those Viper Spoons? I've 'duplicated' one to the best of my abilities...will post pics later, tell me what you guys think. Can't wait until Saturday! :D Hope it's not another rudder amidships kinda day, but with the forecast it seems like any idiot with a boat will be out.

Yeah, I heard it's usually barren out there opening day, lefty. :rolleyes: :p
No kidding salt...I've modded mine to have two hooks instead of three and twin strands of stainless steel wire instead of that silly single strand of titanium...though my hammering skills are a bit...bleh...lol

Mixed feelings on them myself. While I have not had much luck myself with them, one of my fishing partners has! He has had some big fish on them, so I know they work. Me.....not so lucky with them. I must be doing something wrong. :confused:
Good Luck!

I've used them for fluke and seabass..I think the work much better on the seabass. I was fishing a whole squid..just my experience with them..

I have 3 different colors and I seem to catch just as much with bucktails..... and I definitely cut the 3rd hook off.... too hard to get 3 hooks out and save the fish
