Quick take
Balanced jigging spoon with flutter action that mimics an injured young shad on the drop.
This 1/2 oz Bink's Pro Series spoon in Gold is made from high carbon steel and has a spear point. It suits vertical jigging, horizontal jigging and casting, and it can be ripped through the water as well. The gold finish gives anglers a second option in the same weight for the same presentations.
Best for
- Vertical jigging deeper structure and drop-offs
- Anglers using high-speed vertical jigging techniques
Skip if
- You need a spoon for horizontal casting; these are vertical-only
Strengths
- Perfectly balanced design allows unhooked flutter descent
- Lure drops without line twist common in less refined spoons
- 16 colors provide options for different water clarity and light
Trade-offs
- Heavier spoons tire your arm during extended vertical jigging
- Treble hooks require careful handling on the drop
- High carbon steel rusts quickly if not dried immediately after use

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
