About this product
Spoon Lure Collection – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.
A spoon is the simplest lure ever made: a curved piece of metal with a hook on the end. Drag it through water and the curve makes it wobble from side to side, flashing as it turns. That wobble and flash is what a fleeing baitfish looks like, and almost every predatory fish in the world will eat one.
The reason to buy a set rather than a single spoon is that the right size depends entirely on what the fish are eating and how deep they are. A small spoon for a school of tiny bait in shallow water; a big heavy one to get down through a current. Thirty spoons across a range of sizes and finishes means you have one for the conditions in front of you.
They are fished in the most straightforward way there is: cast, let it sink if you need depth, and wind back at a steady speed just fast enough to feel the wobble through the rod. Speed it up, slow it down, and add the occasional pause – a spoon flutters when it falls, and fish often take it then.
Around Dar es Salaam spoons take queenfish, barracuda, kingfish, bonito and small trevally off the rocks, beaches and jetties; inland they catch tilapia, tigerfish and Nile perch. Add a short wire trace if barracuda are about, or they will cut you off on the first bite.
