Ron Colby, Gary Yamamoto Custom Baits. Today we’re going to show you how to trick up
a spoon. You can buy these nicely colored spoons and stuff all over the place. You can
get them in a lot of different colors. You can get like this Dave Wallace Wally lure
spoon. He’s got a mesh on it and he’s put a clear coat on it, put a little on there
and stuff. Or you can do what we do a lot. I just get a plain silver Hopkins spoon, change
the hooks, put the split rings on it. We’ve talked about it before, then buy you a set
of permanent markers, colored markers. Any office supply, Safe Way grocery store, K mart,
Wal Mart, they carry all of these. Get you a nice florescent pack and just play around
with them a lot. Okay, so we’ve drawn some blue on there to mimic his shad. We want a
little bit of red dot on here. I’m going to put a little red dot right here, maybe
a little gill plate flare. Put a little red right there, and maybe we need a little chartreuse
on this because we’re biting some chartreuse. You do little lime green, color it, put that
down there, mimic a little blue gill maybe down on the bottom towards that. There you
go. You’ll be amazed how many more fish you’ll catch by just tricking up a plain
silver Hopkins spoon.
