Question about trout spoons
Re: Question about trout spoons
I have the same spoons. I suggest you use the teardrop or oval / egging snaps. I have been especially happy with the Yamashita eggings snaps. Also Owner quick snaps. Or if you feel like paying a premium for a good product: https://japantackle.com/terminaltackle/ ... 00064.html

When I posted this, I forgot that I have these Decoy Egg Snaps.
Re: Question about trout spoons
Yes. Those are good. Perhaps size 1 (30 lb) is a bit big, but if the trout are big too
Re: Question about trout spoons
These are great spoons. The hook they are equipped with will give in way before that Decoy snap will. I think if you use about 4 lbs line, you'll be able to bend the hook without breaking the line.

The seatrout I target can get big, so I normally change the hooks to singles from VanFook. With standard trout the hooks are fine and sure does hook them...
