Jesse Duncan does a lot of fishing with spoons on Barren. He catches quality largemouth as well as hybrid white bass on this technique. I agree with the above responder that locating the bait fish is key. He fishes the Mann's (Mann-o-lure) spoon much of the time. I always have quite a few in my tackle box in chrome, chartreuse, and white. Color does seem to matter on certain days. This is also an excellent technique to use during hot weather.
