eppinger fishing lures Dardevle Dardevlet Spoon-Hot Mackerel This slimmer bodied spoon from the folks at Eppinger is perfect for both casting and trolling Eppinger Weedless Dardevle 1oz Spoon

I also made short casts with it, no longer than 35-feet, to get that correct horizontal posture and would fish it pretty vertically

When the season winds down, the water gets skinny, and the fish are not in their prime I sometimes break out a five weight

Also, I do like the spool amount as it may save me some money in knowing exactly how much I can spool onto reel (if it's not well articulated on reel specs), I often use a higher braid weighted line than the specs display so having this little information is helpful

While the reel I tested has held up and done its job for a year of consistent use, some issues with the gearing and frame have led to slippage and warping
