Secret Spoons....Quality?

I just bought a castable "Secret Spoon". It cost 29 bucks, it's 7 inches long. I had 3 choices for color, Chrome, White, or Chartreuse Green. I bought the Green. I live in Beverly, Ma. Is this a worthwhile lure? Did I by the right color? and how should I fish this bad boy? Do I use a barrel swivel snap? Thanks.

At 7oz you'll be pretty sore after throwing that thing for any length of time. Sounds like a rod breaker to me.

At 7 oz. the only place I would use that is the ditch. A real backbreaker for sure. Might try jiggin it at the mouth of the Merrymack - from a boat!
