Chris thanks for the video. I got to see you catch them on the big spoon at Guntersville first hand as I was your day 3 marshal. I had a awesome time watching you catch big Tennessee river largemouth bass. Looking forward to being your marshal again in the near future. Go get them at the classic Hammer.
I was considering the extra hardware but after hearing Chris talk about how it can hinder the action and presentation of the bait thats all I needed to hear. I'll take my chances, less hardware more bites!
Just got myself caught up in spoons. Never in my life would use them idky but i am a true believer after i broke off 2 of my flutter spoon on my last outing. They do produce when the bite is super slow. Just be patient and learn how to use it like how you said. Hook sets were awkward for me cause they hit on the fall rod tip high slack line and all. Had to reposition my self for better hooksets. Great informative videos im digging it.
Chris I have noticed you setup has change slightly over the years with your swivel. If i remember correctly you’re running braid to your swivel then a 25lb fluro to your spoon. Did you make the change due to being more efficient on the water or do you believe it helps with the presentation looking more natural?
Zaldain looking straight out of the early 90s California bass scene with that stache and longer hair. Dude is going to look like Kelly Puppo here in a few years haha. Keep on doing you hammer!
Up in Ontario we do something similar. If they aren't biting the blade bait or hair jig, or if the size isn't quite what we want. We toss out th Ol' Williams J70 Ice Jigging Spoon, same type effect but you gotta change out their stock rear treble (I go with a feathered treble cause its something more they can key on), and then you get the added benefit/hook up ratio of the side hooks just in case.
Love the video, Guntersville crushed me my friend. I've been doing this with smaller spoons on the Coosa river lakes for big nasty mean spots and I use a stinger hook for spots, the action isn't so important with those psycho fish and that stinger help keep them on when they are going insane
Chris great informative video. What spoons do you like to throw? I have had success with the Ben Parker spoons but not sure if there are many other options?
In 2022, we plan to post once a week. Just takes a lot of money to do it right, but we are fully invested next season! Thanks for the support by watching, it helps us.
Only thing I do different is I put a smaller stinger hook on a barrel swivel with a bobber stop where I tie the spoon on. I have caught a lot on the stinger that have missed the main hook.
Thanks for the info. I bought a couple of these a while back but really didn’t know how to present them to the fish. Do you fish them any different around docks?
Idk ive never tried it with braid but I use the segar 25lb flipping fluro because the stretch and you can see it because the multi color line I might try with braid but idk I feel like I might lose a few more

That's what I've learned the last few years. You lose a few yes, but you get many many more bites and bigger bites.
Thanks Chris!! Learned a ton. I appreciate it. Had the best day on Lake Travis as your judge two years ago.
Appreciate it Bobbi! Hope we get to fish Travis again!

Hey just getting into using big spoons for striper,really good video,can’t believe all the large mouth you were catching
After watching this video I will be throwing a flutter spoon this weekend. Thanks for the tips Chris!👊
Awesome Thomas!

Cool video Chris jacked that big one at the end dude cool
Was wondering about that spoon seen you land some monsters on it good stuff.
I love informing videos like these!
Thanks Calie!
Last year was the first year I really used a spoon and had a blast throwing it
It’s addicting 🎣🥄

Keep it coming Chris! Love your videos, I learn so much and what I'm doing wrong! Thanks! I love fishing big spoons and swimbaits!
This is a technique I have not tried. I appreciate your tips, keep it up! Thanks
Good luck!

We call this “slacklining” on Ky and Barkley. A killer method with spoons, buck tails, jigs, even giant worms.
Yessir - works big. Not sure why more aren’t doing it these days.
I’m going to give this a try thank you so much,It looks cool to throw.Awesome .
Awesome video.

Great video and tips! Appreciate it.
Thank you 🙏
Another great instructional video. Great job. Reminds me of my saltwater days.
New sub; thanks for the info., going out soon with spoons in my arsenal for the first time: Johnson silver minnows.
Good luck!
Will Flutter Spoon be effective on trolling as well?
If positive, what should be my trolling speed range?
Awesome info!!!! Definitely one of the hardest techniques to gain confidence in!
It really is! Glad the vid was helpful
Great video
Chris great informative video. What spoons do you like to throw? I have had success with the Ben Parker spoons but not sure if there are many other options?
The Ben Parker mini mag in shattered glass is a great one
Love your videos man, just wish you’d post more on your own channel then waiting for BASS to post one of you.
In 2022, we plan to post once a week. Just takes a lot of money to do it right, but we are fully invested next season! Thanks for the support by watching, it helps us.
Good video. Thanks for the info and tips.
Any time!

Roberts can be tough fishing, have you seen the hook setups on the saltwater butterfly jigs, maybe worth a try
Been playing around with some of the saltwater stuff since fishing that Redfish Cup
Thanks for the info. I bought a couple of these a while back but really didn’t know how to present them to the fish. Do you fish them any different around docks?
Thank you Chris
Great tutorial, Chris! Could that possibly be the future site of the Classic you are on in this video? 😁
🤫
I want to try flutter spoons with stripers in Cali. Can you recommend a moderately price rod and reel.
Great info thx man
Can this technique can be used for smallies or no. I say that because up north where I am we don't have as big and deep of lakes.
I used it on Basslive on Champlain Day 2… should be on Bassmaster’s RUclips
if i have the swivel attach between my braid and fluoro carbon leader do i still need to attach a swiwel to my spoon?
Great Tips!
Thanks Larry!
What lenght of the leader ?
Idk ive never tried it with braid but I use the segar 25lb flipping fluro because the stretch and you can see it because the multi color line I might try with braid but idk I feel like I might lose a few more
Braid has been my best change to date when it comes to landing more on it. Good luck!
In a tournament when you are looking for 5 bites how do you practice THANK YOU
Why do you tie the feather/tinsel separate from the treble??
Awesome Brother 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
What’s the importance of the short flouro leader?
I like the little bit of stretch it provides with those big trebles and heavy weight
What spoon do you recommend
My spoon that I just came out with last week!!! bit.ly/BigLarrySpoon
How do you keep the spoon from getting hung up in the tires and under those docks and all the cables?
Be precise with your cast/pitch and be aware of how it’s falling
Have you ever tried replacing the treble hook with a heavy straight shank flippin hook?
No sir. How do you like it?
Zaldaingerous I’ve only tried it in a school of stripers for speed and safety but it worked well. Haven’t tried it just bass fishing yet.
What the song in the beginning. Great video.
He is a beast
saludos
What spoon is that in the intro that is not a Nicolas. Anyone know?
It’s a prototype version of a Japanese spoon that was never put into production.
Did you use a flutter spoon on Cayuga Lake and did you catch any with this method????
I use the Santone Lures Z-Spin on Cayuga
That’s Ray Roberts is it not? 👀
Correct
Did the tires give it away 😂
How do I get that Steez spoon? Haha
Lolol have to be friends with Yusuke M!
Or the spoon at the end
I’m working on a spoon 😎 I’ll let you know as soon as it’s available
👍🇦🇹😀
lost 240$ worth of ghurka knifes in the last 2 months alone. sucks but the bite is too addicting!
9 outta 10... not happening.
