During my charter boat days on Lake Ontario, I swore by spraying my spoons with WD40. I would start the morning running half my 8 rods with no WD40 on them and half with them. Call me crazy but the side with the WD40 always had the edge. The final stray that convinced me was a August salmon my party caught one day. I had sprayed 1 lure in the set up and that one went off. When I netted the fish, the salmon was missing 1 eye completely, eye socket mangled and healed over. The other eye was cloudy to the point that it appeared this fish was 95% blind. This fish had a huge head and very small body, you could tell it was having trouble eating.
