Weighted Clarkspoon Trolling Spoons
Weighted Clarkspoons take the classic spoon design and add integrated weight for versatility. Cast them from shore, piers, or boats without needing separate sinkers. Troll them at standard Clarkspoon speeds. The added weight gives you the flutter and flash that has been catching Spanish mackerel, bluefish, and bonita since 1927. From $6.30.

The Classic Spoon, Now Castable
Standard Clarkspoons are legendary trolling lures but too light to cast effectively. The weighted version solves that. The integrated weight lets you cast from piers, jetties, bridges, and boats while keeping the same flutter action that drives fish wild.
You can still troll these at standard speeds. The weight just gives you one more way to fish them. When you see Spanish mackerel busting bait on the surface, cast a weighted Clarkspoon into the fray instead of trying to troll through the school.

Integrated Weight
Built-in weight eliminates the need for inline sinkers or planer rigs when casting. Pick up and cast like any other lure while maintaining Clarkspoon action.
Proven Clarkspoon Action
The same wobble and flash that has been catching fish since 1927. Spanish mackerel, bluefish, bonita, and stripers cannot resist the flutter.
Dual Purpose Design
Cast from shore or troll from a boat. One lure covers both techniques, which means less tackle to carry and more options on the water.
How to Fish Weighted Clarkspoons
1. Tie directly to your leader or use a small snap swivel
2. For casting, make a long cast and retrieve with a steady medium speed
3. For trolling, deploy at 3-6 knots behind the boat
4. Add pauses and speed changes to vary the flutter action
5. Use a wire leader if targeting toothy species like mackerel
6. Rinse with fresh water after each trip
