Stopped in to see Pete today to get the hardware changed out on my Flutter Spoon, thanks Pete...
He's fully stocked with them for those of you looking

Based upon your recommendation (and that of some tackle shops I've spoken with), I'll change out the hardware on this spoons. I hope I can get a day in this weekend and the weather doesn't spoil it. This will be my last shot at stripers, perhaps ever. Unfortunately we're moving west next year. Best regards! JD |

Most nice bass I see seem to have a 9" chartruce flutter spoon attached to it's jaw. Do you guys prefer a spinner or conventional to work those spoons? Thanks in advance. JD |

I’ve been fishing flutter spoons on spinning gear (although I’m not totally happy with the rod I’ve been using) and more than likely will be buying a rod strictly dedicated for flutter spooning after the holidays. 90% sure on which rod I’ll be buying but as yet still undecided if it will be the spinning or conventional model. I will say that IMHO you want a rod that’s at least 7’6” in length with 8’ being optimal. I feel that the longer rod gives you more of a lift of the spoon when you jig it & thus more ‘flutter time’ on the drop. You also want a rod with a soft tip but with plenty of backbone Last edited by Skolmann; 12-15-2021 at 07:42 AM.. |

Since the downward flutter of these spoons is what triggers the most strikes, they are designed to be long and on the lighter side so they don't sink as fast and flutter longer. A longer, softer tipped pole does 2 things for you here. 1) Since the spoons are light, a longer rod with a softer tip allows you to load the rod tip up and cast them easier. 2) Since most strikes happen on the downward flutter, as Skolmann mentioned above, a longer rod with a softer tip helps you lift and whip the spoon higher off the bottom which means more time for the spoon to sink/flutter, do it's thing and trigger strikes. Good luck on Monday, make us proud!

The amount of life out there was impressive. Both my friend & I lost count but we're guessing we each caught between 10 & 15 stripers.*The charter experience was completely different than a party boat. Easier, less time, and less hassle. If I had the time I would certainly do it again. I would also highly recommend Derek and his boat Fisher Price. Thanks for the tips! Best regards, JD |
