Hey Crazy:
In the past, I've always used various rubber to catch spring schoolies. This year was no different. Then last week, an old timer standing on the side of me was nailing em with a Krocodile spoon.
So for the **** of it, I bought a 1/2 oz. Kroc (gold with an red stripe along the bottom), changed the treble hook to a single, and have fished the local sandbar over the last week. I can't believe the number of fish I am catching versus the numbers I caught with the rubber.
I'm totally perplexed for the simple fact that 99% of the people I'm fishing on the side of are using rubber. I've only seen one person use a spoon other than me.
Can you help me out with this one? Am I just proving conventional belief may not be right (using rubber)or is this just a luck streak? Personally, I don't think it is because even though I'm nailing em on the spoon, I've switched to rubber on several occasions and the number of catch dramatically decrease.
What's your take on this and the use of spoons?
