Title: Bink's Pro Series Spoon

Bink's Pro Series Spoon

So one of my impulse buying landed a couple of these jigging spoons.  Of course I had to get the glows.  As they say, if it catches a fisherman, it will catch fish.  Well, that's what I like to believe.  So after receiving the spoon and there isn't really anything special about this spoon.  Isn't that the specialty of it is?  It's fairly plain, with symmetry in design.  Front and back are identical match.  It's all about balance, while it does have a very slight taper to the entirely of the spoon shape.  Of course I had to test the glow so off to the basement I went.  It glows, just like any other glows.  That's a good thing, because I had glows that are spotty or have offed blotches of glow paint difference.

1/8 oz. spoons I've got.  Will be testing these out soon.  They are good sized for their weight.  Profile wise as a jigging spoon, they feel as if they are half the size of an overall casting spoon.

They look fine for a spoon, want something a little different hold each end and give them a little bend, that should slow the drop and give them that crippled look, might be that little thing different that triggers them to bite. Good luck!

seems like more of an open water lure to me.

They are an open water spoon. The guys who make them fish by me. Never heard of anyone locally using them besides them and their staffers, they try to sell them on the local FB groups all he time but nobody else really talks about them.
