Super User clayton86 Posted June 10, 2012 Super User Posted June 10, 2012 I ordered some spoons off ebay for fishing here in kuwait there not quite what i expected i was thinking they were much bigger but more oddly look at the package Quote
senko_77 Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 AHAHAHAHA. I'm pretty sure those cartoon characters are from a show on Nickelodeon called The Fairly Odd Parents. I haven't the slightest clue why they would be on the package of a spoon. Lol. Where in the heck did you order those things from??? Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted June 10, 2012 Author Super User Posted June 10, 2012 it is from the fairy odd parents I ordered them off ebay hoping they were much much bigger I was hoping for like 1oz or 1.5oz ones these are barely 1/4oz Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted June 10, 2012 Super User Posted June 10, 2012 Nice... never seen packaging like that before. I'm looking forward to your Kuwait fishing report by the way. Quote

Bair Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Dude, I am pretty sure that's Portuguese. It translates to "12 colors with a watercolor brush". Makes you wonder what the packager was thinking Quote
NoBassPro Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 hey I did have my ice fishing stuff sent here it works great for catching bait fish Tell you what, my oldest boy and I would pretty much be in heaven if he could stay busy catching baitfish while I fished for other species. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted June 11, 2012 Super User Posted June 11, 2012 I use lures very similar to those, and they work very well in saltwater. With their profile they cast a ton, great for windy days. The ones I use are heavier, I like them around 1-2 oz, they come much larger than that too. The keywords I would look for are " freestyle jigs" or "sling jigs", BPS markets their own, Williamson and Braid( that's a brand name) lures make them too, off hand I can't think of any others but there are lots of them. Diamond style jigs are a good alternative too. Make sure you don't confuse them with butterfly jigs, the hook configuartions are different. Quote

Make sure you don't confuse them with butterfly jigs, the hook configuartions are different. we had a few we bought off the locals they were probably 1.5ozs easily and they worked great but we started with 3 one for each of us one guy lost his on a snag then one guy lost his on a big queen fish then I watched a shark chase mine as I tried to burn it in as I realized I did have a leader sharks swim faster then I can reel and i seen it open up then I reeled in slack empty line I wasn't happy. I ordered some off BPS also cant remember what they were called they were kinda like a long skinny square shape tapered at each end with chrome stickers on it they seem to work really well for the queens and needle fish bite it but there a SOB to hook with the spoons we have better luck using bait fish and letting them swallow it and just cut the line and release them if a local doesn't come take it first. But them heavy spoons worked great cast it out let it sink and just rip it back with a series of jerks and u just see masive schools of Queens swarming it beating the crap out of it almost every cast.
