I know I had brought this up before, and since its so late in the walleye season, I just might do it again next spring, but here are some pics. Told my Unc about the crank idea, and he said he just read about guys on Saginaw Bay using spoons for flashers, hated to tell him that I have been using them on and off for a few years now down on Erie. He thought he might have sprung a new idea on me I think.
Also, for those who haven’t tried this trick yet, two helpful hints. Its hard to run these without spooking fish if you plan on running a diver or inline weight in front of the flasher and then your choice of bait; spoon or harness. If you have a couple of reels spooled with lead core, then good choice with this combination. If you don’t have any spooled up, no worries, go and get yourself a snapweight kit and try the 50/50 system. If your kit doesn’t have dive charts, look into a Precision Trolling Guide to get the info you need.
These are the spoons I run. Also there are some stores like Jann’s (Jann’s Netcraft) that will offer spoon kits. Which means there are spoons, and you add the split rings, good quality snap n swivel, then you have some fairly reasonably priced flashers.
