Well me and few friends are fishing there one day and this kid walks up that we don't know. (many people fished this place)

He had and old zebco 202 and was casting one of these type of spoons.

So help me, he made a total of 12 casts. He caught 11 bass and one broke his line on the 12th cast. Must have been the only lure he had because after that he pulled his stringer of fish out of the water and back up the hill he went. LOL! I went straight home and bought one. I have had one in my tackle box ever since.


Crazy you mentioned this. My son was fishing with some friends yesterday evening and the very same thing you just mentioned with the very same bait. Only he caught 4 in 4 cast and lost the bait on the 5th.
