I have had success with spooks in back bay / calmer shallow water. The same as freshwater bass that side to side can call them in. With a pencil I find a splashy commotion causes more strikes than the slower way of working them. Another consideration is that pencils cast like missiles and are great when teh fish are out there. IMO each has its place and I rarely carry both in my bag at the same time, I use them for different places.
