22 Gram Spoon Kits - Limited Drop

22g Gram Spoons with Treble Hooks and Trailers

Sink Rate & Depth
Action: It is a sinking lure. At 22g, it will cut through the water column quickly.

The "Countdown" Method: To fish a specific depth, cast it out and count (e.g., "one-thousand-one") until it hits the bottom. On your next cast, start reeling a few seconds earlier to keep it just above the floor.

Range: Perfect for depths of 5 to 20 feet. It can go deeper, but you’ll need patience for the sink time.

2. How to "Dive" or "Float"
To go deeper (Dive): Slow down your retrieval speed or point your rod tip toward the water. You can also "flutter" it by stopping the reel for 2 seconds, letting it fall like a dying fish, then resuming.

To stay shallow (Float): Hold your rod tip high (at 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock) and reel faster. The 22g weight makes it hard to keep on the very surface, but a fast retrieve will create a "wake" that attracts aggressive predators like Mackerel or Bass.

3. Best Uses & Species
The 22g size is a "workhorse" lure because it's heavy enough for long casts but small enough to mimic common baitfish.

Saltwater: Ideal for Mackerel, Bass, Pollack, and Coalfish. Its weight allows you to reach offshore schools from the beach or pier.

Freshwater: Great for Pike, large Trout, and Salmon. In deep lakes, it works well as a vertical jig—dropping it straight down and "hopping" it off the bottom.

4. Pro-Tips for the 22g Spoon
Avoid Line Twist: Spoons spin. Always use a high-quality swivel (either a snap-swivel or a barrel swivel attached to a leader) to prevent your fishing line from twisting into a bird's nest.

Retrieve Speed: If the spoon is spinning wildly (doing 360s), you are reeling too fast. You want a "wobble" where it kicks side-to-side and flashes.

The Flutter: Most hits happen when the spoon is falling. Every 5–10 turns of the handle, pause for a second to let it "flutter" down—this mimics a wounded fish and often triggers a strike.
