In any event, I haven't been all that impressed. To be fair, they didn't get as much time in the water as my other spoons. I'm more of a fan of the traditional reliable's or Montauk spoons - and I suppose they can't get bit in the cabin.
I will say this - they get deep fast. They drop like a freaking stone if you take the boat out of gear or troll down current, so its easy to hang up your investment. They just fish differently than regular spoons, so if you already know how and do well, not much of a reason to get them.
All that said, I know 1 guy that really likes them - the fluke pattern has worked really well for him.
The fluke has me interested also, I do think I will fool around with the spoons I have, I too think the bucks is big for the reward, but if you hang a 60 and you know they are there where we fish.

If I ever see a bass chasing my 8 lb fluke at Sakonnet, I am gonna wish I had it livelined!!!

Anybody ever liveline fluke?
