We have all used a spoon and it is just a matter of size, color, length and weight, the slab is nothing other than piece of lead or metal painted. The slab is one of the best artificial lures on Lakes with stripe bass, hybrids, large mouth and small mouths in the summer time. The slab, vs. flutter spoon, is little more beefy and heavier and is easier to detect a strike compared to the jigging spoon. The design and concave surfaces of the jigging spoon that create the flutter in a flutter spoon slows the sinking and the strikes sometime are hard but seem subtle because of slack in the line, Slab drops at the faster rate.

It is a deadly to use slabs and spoons in the summer month because fish tend to school up and the feeding is frenzy and many times bait will fall after being hit and the bait is an easy meal for the fish below.  The other advantage to slab spoons is getting to the right depth when fish are holding close to the thermocline because of low oxygen levels up in water column in the hot summer months.

Slabs and Spoons

  • Bounce them on the bottom
  • Rip them up through the fish
  • Work up and drop at the 4-5ft level the fish are holding (remember most fish feed up so be above and flutter spoons top down to the fish)

 

Fishing with slab spoons requires no expertise and the best way to learn is look for schooling fish on top in water mark the depth in channels and deep cover, or just bounce on the bottom taking the rod form 10-12 oclock . When you feel the tap set the hook hard, and game on. Good electronics are critical and the ability to see where the fish are school up or holding. Whether you use Down scan, side scan, or just traditional old school sonar find them and try a slab or spoon. Look for humps in middle of lake close to channels , points that fish can push shad or other prey up on, or transition spots with structure and you will find the best places to use slab spoons,

 

Choose a spoon or slab the mimics the shape and size of a shad or baitfish in the lake you are fishing ot the offshore species you are dropping to. Slab Spoon remember can sink quickly,  jigged it to get  a slower, more-wobbling action or rip it to get a fleeing bait presentation , the fish may like the fall or like or fast once you find the right presentation stay with it and you catch rate will go way up. 

 

All you bass anglers in the summer bass move to Deepwater habitat it can be party time to catch big bass holding on structure on at the end of deep points. Oil rigs and big tops are awesome spots for blue fish, stripers, mackerel, amberjacks, and the occasional grouper or ground fish. Awesome time when you fish spoons and slabs around offshore structure,

One final thought on location humps, long points, standing timber, submerged structure, oil rigs all are great spots for Slab Spoons.

The right spoon weight and shape slender shad-shaped spoon s fall faster than fat round usually Slabs can be found from 1.4oz. All the way up to 8oz for Tuna, Wahoo loves the Wombat by Carlson offshore for Striper and big tuna. Bomber, and others are great for lake Striper, Hybrids, Sand Bass, (white Bass) or Large Mouth and small mouth, always remember the size needs to match the forage.
