Suspended Stripers and the Bink Spoon

[Spoon Feeder]

If you read my article on this forum on Catching Stripers year round on light tackle you may remember me talking about using a grub on a 1/4 oz jig head when they are 20 to 30' deep. Today they were around 40' deep in 60' of water. The same technique was tried except using a 1/2 oz Bink Spoon instead of a grub. You would cast the spoon as far as you can and count down about 10 seconds and then rapidly reel the spoon in. The stripers were hammering the spoons. You have to make sure you get a good hook set because there is so much line out but it worked great today. This would work well also if you're fishing with live bait, instead of waiting around for a hit throw a 1/2 oz Bink Spoon while you're waiting for a hit on your bait.
