I was talking with a man the other day, and he was telling me about casting spoons.  The one thing that really got my attention was that he told me, these spoons are a great way to cover allot of water in short time.  I have never tired the type of lure before.  Is a casting spoon the same as a jigging spoon?  What size, weight should I look at for bass?  Anything that will help me locate fish faster, sounds like something I want to try.  Thanks for any ideas.

They are not the same as a jigging spoon. Put a plastic trailer on one and throw around any grass or other structure and hang on. They go through the water with a side to side wobble and are deadly. You can fish them shallow or let them fall and fish a deeper layer such as along the tops of submerged grass.

Kevin Van Dam used a casting spoon (along with his Red Eye Sexy Shad lipless crankbait and his Strike King Jig with a Rage Tail Craw Trailer) to win his most recent Elite tournament.

If a guy like KVD feels confident in spoons, then I imagine they can catch some fish.
