Gave Flowing a try. Began fishing at 2:30pm. Began to rain and sleet hard with wind kicking up. Came back to shore and hung out until weather calmed down. Re-launched and began trolling an Elgin Fishing God's Tooth spoon Perch pattern on slower action setting. God blessed with 5 fish trolling. Wind then really kicked up so trolling not an option with my raft. Decided to drift with cast and retrieve. God blessed with an additional 6 fish on Perch, Pink, and Frog patterns for a total of 11 fish. All fish carefully released to fight again. Called it quits at 5:30pm as the rain began to dump. Wishing all tight lines.

I am glad to see HOW you use them in the Pictures. I have a few from your recommendations but not much luck with them. This is the slow retrieve setting?

Hi Cobrar543,

Sorry to hear you have not had much luck with them to date. I mostly use the slower action setting (hook on narrow end of the spoon). I also use a small snap clip for easy change outs. If I am not getting action on various patterns on the slow setting, that's when I switch to the fast setting and that can and has made all the difference. I just love having the flexibility of this spoon! Once you get the pattern and setting figured out for what the fish want, it's usually awesome action. Hope this helps.

I have found the God's Tooth spoon's work awesome for steelhead, trout and cuts so far. Only issue I have found was finding God's Tooth spoon's in stock.

Hi Tyee4me,
Just wanted to mention a number of stores listed on elginfishing.com carry the full line of spoons such as Doug's boats, McDaniels, and Ted's to name a few. I know Ted's will ship them to you if you want but not sure which other stores will ship. Thanks for sharing your experience with the spoons!
