I fish on the Cumberland River below the dam all year with spoons for Rainbow and Brown Trout. The water there is always crystal clear. The spoons that I use are a small casting/trolling spoon from Luhr Jensen called the Super Duper in colors of chrome/red head, brass/red head, and rainbow trout color. The sizes for these are a #501 (1/12 oz) and #502 (1/10 oz). Another casting/trolling spoon that I use is by Acme. It is called the Little Cleo and it is a 1/8 oz. chrome spoon. This spoon has a very nice presentation, but I like a smaller hook than what the spoon originally comes with. I prefer a # 10 size hook. Both of these spoons have been used while wading and then jigging when the water rises due to generation from the dam. They perform with good results.
