Clarkspoon Trolling Spoons: The Original Since 1927

Clarkspoon has been catching Spanish mackerel, bluefish, bonita, and stripers since 1927. The simple spoon shape creates an erratic wobble that triggers reaction strikes. Chrome and gold finishes in sizes 00 through 4 cover everything from light tackle inshore trolling to heavier nearshore applications. Most anglers troll them behind 3-4 oz of weight or a number 1-2 planer with fluorocarbon leader. From $5.10. Also check the Black Chrome Clarkspoons for clear water, and pair with Ball Bearing Trolling Sinkers.
  • Proven fish-catching action since 1927
  • Chrome and gold finishes
  • Sizes 00 through 4
  • Stainless steel saltwater hooks
  • Assembled in the USA

Nearly 100 Years of Catching Fish

Some lures come and go with trends. Clarkspoons have been catching fish for nearly a century because they work. The simple stamped spoon design creates an erratic, wobbling action that mimics a wounded baitfish. Spanish mackerel, bluefish, bonita, and stripers cannot resist it.

The beauty of Clarkspoons is the simplicity. Tie one to a fluorocarbon leader, add some weight or a small planer, and troll. No complicated rigging, no expensive equipment. At $5-9 per spoon, you can run a full spread without worrying about losing one to a toothy mackerel or a piece of structure. Affordable, effective, and backed by almost a century of saltwater results.

Classic Spoon Action

The stamped metal body creates a wobble and flash that mimics a wounded baitfish. The erratic action triggers reaction strikes from predatory species. The design has not changed because it does not need to.

Size Range from 00 to 4

Size 00 is a tiny 2/0 hook presentation for light tackle and finicky fish. Size 4 is the largest for heavier presentations and bigger species. Sizes 0 and 1 are the most popular all-around choices for Spanish mackerel and bluefish.

Chrome and Gold Finishes

Chrome is the go-to in bright conditions. Gold works better in low light, overcast skies, and stained water. Three-pack variety options include chrome, gold, and chartreuse flash for maximum versatility in one purchase.

How to Set Up a Clarkspoon Trolling Rig

1. Tie main line to a ball bearing trolling sinker (2-4 oz) or small planer

2. Attach 4-6 feet of 20-30 lb fluorocarbon leader

3. Tie the Clarkspoon to the end of the leader

4. Deploy at 4-6 knots behind the boat

5. Adjust sinker weight to control depth in the water column

6. Run multiple rods with different sizes and finishes

What is the difference between Clarkspoon and Black Chrome? +
Standard Clarkspoons are bright chrome or gold. Black Chrome Clarkspoons have a darker, subtler finish for clear water where bright chrome can spook pressured fish.
Can I troll Clarkspoons from a kayak? +
Absolutely. Clarkspoons are one of the most popular kayak trolling lures. Use a smaller sinker (1-2 oz) and shorter leader. The light weight and affordable price make them ideal for kayak anglers. Check our trolling speed chart.
