I definitely agree with Jims second point as well. I have multiples of most spoons, (Its like a fishermans code IMO), but anyhow, there are definitely those that produce fish and others that just like to be washed. My buddy Jay and i have had that discussion more than once. I think theres allot to be said about action, size as well as color. But, no matter what it looks like, if its getting thrashed, then it keeps going out. I say if it aint broke, dont fix it.
