Your technique works for walleye here in Minnesota as well. I guarantee your hands will be cold up here now. Thank you for your service and the great instructional videos you produce.
I'm glad you posted I just got down to GA and I am having such a hard time adjusting to fishing down here. The water is so clear and these fish are so finicky!!! Help please power fishing isn't working
We were just fishen a couple of days ago using gold colored spoons in about 15 ft in private lake here in Athens. We brought them in too. Thanks some some finer points though.
Epic spoon day Gene! Awesome vid and perfect for this time of the year. You almost made me want to send you a pair of fingerless wool gloves, but I’m sure you have some. Like you said, but it was so good hard to leave. As always love the hat! Now let’s take care of business this weekend at Auburn!
This is awesome! I will have to try a spoon next time I'm out! Snowed today though here in Chicago, so maybe it's too cold! Definitely not 50° but the Fluke Hoodie is all I'll need haha.
Gene love the content! I would love to see more electronic footage for videos like this! Especially when you mentioned you found them on your graph, please show us what to look for.
I'm trying, Right now I'm having major issues with screen flutter from my units. One day out of 20 there won't be a problem but most of the time there is, and I can't get these units to recognize my SD cards so I'm not about to do screen shots either.
@@Flukemaster no worries man i truly appreciate your content I caught my first fish on a baitcaster years ago thanks to you and now I have my own boat. You rock keep doing what you're doing
Awesome info! I’ve been trying to catch them on a spoon on watts bar for the last couple of weeks. Can’t seem to get them to bite it. Fishing around a lot of bait fish too.
What size world wide spoon were using? What size swivel? You mentioned you needed to go up in lb. flurocarbon, what lb. do you recommend for fishing this way?
Brandon Smith silver, gold. The classic red stripe has been good for me before. Idk why, or if it’s related to the same thing with red lipless cranks. I guess the shad colors could be fine but I figure the fish isn’t seeing much but the flash of color on the flutter?
Hey Gene, I was wondering at what temp is the water too cold for bass? Like, at what point should I just throw my tackle in the closet until the water warms up in the Spring?
I've caught bass with half the lake frozen over. It was tough but I did it. It all boils down to if you are able to put up with the cold and work hard to find and catch them.
Great video just got off the water caught 24 this morning but I think I should have caught over 50 !! They were schooled up in the back of a creek just couldn't get them to hit anything!! They were feeding on 1 inch shad just could not match them !! What can I do differently you name it I probably threw it today !!
Not a big fan of the spoon but that’s slowly changing with all the water pressure lately… Never really fished it much, always threw a jig, but this is kinda a jig too in its own special way… so I went to lake Varner and became a fan of the flutter spoon 😂😂😂
Really like the new intro music , nicely done , thank you for being so informative with all of your videos
Glad you dig it. I make the music in a program called Ableton Live and the animation was made in Adobe After Effects :)
Have recently became a huge fan of flutter spoons. Great for any occasion I believe.
Love the on the water videos catching fish. That's what we're looking for!!!!
I’m so doing this Monday thanks Gene!
Flukemaster Hoodie is on point! I like the thumbholes
Your tutorial is excellent thank you for such in depth explanation.
Damn! What a great day Gene! Thanks for sharing. The new intro is killer
Been years since I fished in the winter. I used Sidewinder spoons and Hopkins spoons. Find them schooled up on a brush pile and load the boat.
Thank you for the information, I have tried to learn spoons this year. I have managed to catch a few small stripers but I will keep trying.

One of your finest video’s! Thank you
See ya in SEC Championship,,,L.S.U🏈
I can't wait.
What a day! Great video!
Never let me down Gene🎣🎣. Another great video and gave me some confidence to finally try and use these spoons that I bought last week🤓
Gene: Like the new intro Dude.
I can proudly say "I made that!" :)
Thank you for this video. Always wanted to learn to throw a spoon. Perfect thank you

Excellent. I catch more bass Dec.- Jan. than the rest of the year on vertical spoons.
Gene, you are awesome.

I’ve never had luck with spoons! I love em but it’s a hard catch for me.
How do you feel about shore fishing with a spoon?
I have had so much success on spoons
Great Video Gene!
great video gene! I have never really fished a spoon I do fish blade baits a lot though in the late fall and winter.
like the new intro spike !
Glad you dig it! :)

Gotta love it when the bite on camera.
Spoons are definitely worth a try if you haven’t ever tried them.
Gosh I want my kayak to come in.
Fluke master the best to do it
Man, you were putting in some work with that spoon! I've never used one before but you bet your butt I'm going to now! Thanks for the tip Fluke! :)
It’s early fall here but I’ll probably go 🥄 fishing tomorrow.

Man that was awesome. 👌
Always fun to spoon.
Can you use different color spoons or just the medium ones in chrome? Mr. Fluke Sir! Shawn
I mostly use chrome but I also have a few gold spoons and white ones.
epic day!
Hey Gene, what kind of rig are you in?
Let’s go baby
ive bin try the strikeking spoons but so far not much luck not feeling any hits on the way down
I love it!!!
Will a flutter spoon catch striped bass in California???
Meet me at rocky one day and show me what the hell I'm messing up lol
Was I the only one waiting for him the set that camera up on the back of the boat after he was finished reeling that fish in lol
I know I was.
What size world wide spoon were using? What size swivel? You mentioned you needed to go up in lb. flurocarbon, what lb. do you recommend for fishing this way?
I was using the 5". It comes with a swivel and I use 15 to 20lb line.
@@Flukemaster any colors of the spoons you recommend?
Brandon Smith silver, gold. The classic red stripe has been good for me before. Idk why, or if it’s related to the same thing with red lipless cranks.
I guess the shad colors could be fine but I figure the fish isn’t seeing much but the flash of color on the flutter?
“Look at this b#%*c” love the excitement in the moment. Never heard you curse before.. I mean, that’s what it sounds like you said..
Clean your ears out my friend. lol. I don’t cuss in my videos.
Clearly you said look at that fish.. head out of the gutter. Gotcha.

@@Flukemaster Thanks so much for the response! Guess I'll keep making my after work fishing stops.
I gotta try that. What’s the lowest temperature you want to throw it in?
It starts getting difficult when the top of the water starts to harden.
Bwahahahaha
Well I’ve got a molix lover spoon and I’m putting that braid loop on the treble hook. Wish me luck.
Great video..do you still rip it up that hard in upper 40 deg temps?
Great video just got off the water caught 24 this morning but I think I should have caught over 50 !! They were schooled up in the back of a creek just couldn't get them to hit anything!!

cool deal, never seen a net with a metal detector shaft on it

Can you fish a flutter spoon in four foot of water?
Yes. I throw 8 & 9" spoons into shallow water at times.
You would have to have a boat or full size bed to carry that 7'3" rod he uses.
7ft is an average length for a bass rod these days. I used to travel with them in my Toyota Corolla. Now I travel with them in the cab of my Tundra.
Put your rods in the cab , butt end in the passenger floorboard. I’ve carried 9’ fly rods in my Nissan Murano this way
You can feel " kTOOONK" best word 2020.
Not a big fan of the spoon but that’s slowly changing with all the water pressure lately… Never really fished it much, always threw a jig, but this is kinda a jig too in its own special way… so I went to lake Varner and became a fan of the flutter spoon 😂😂😂
Do you get hung up a lot fishing with Flutter Spoons?
How you spot a real fisherman: Ears freezing, hands numb, still fishing.
Amen to that! I live just south of Boston, MA., and was lucky enough to catch fish in open water, on my Kayak, in EVERY month of 2017!
Wish that happened to normal folks lol
I've had more success with spoons than any other lure.
