I would have to say by FLT , ice cream sand , bank breaker , Alfa alewife meat pounding deep ,and we were the boat that got to try the new line of glow spoons for next year , hang on boys ! Bobby had some great spoons in the line up for next year!

A few that really produced for us all Summer were:

 

Dreamweaver UV Blue Dolphin

Dreamweaver Get R' Dun

Dreamweaver Sea Sick Waddler

Dreamweaver Blue Sparkle

Stinger UV Frostbite

Stinger Salmon Viagra

Looking over the wide variety of lures represented here one thing is certainly apparent:

You catch fish on what you run.

You catch fish on what you run.

Hank gave me very similar words of advice once,

"Run what you have confidence in and forget about all that other stuff, if you change out to random stuff, how do you know if you are missing fish on your good stuff?" Thanks again Pops!

Another good lure for me this year was an old Apex that Mac10/Randy gave me that I ran behind a white green dot spinny.

ran a lot of the same spoons as most people here.  standout spoon for us was UV gator stingray on leadcore in the spring and copper in the summer but it shut down after July.

 

 

I must be one of the few boats that didn't land a single fish on SSW or 42nd spoons.  or carmel dolphin

Same here... after July went with UV Gator Crush (stingray & Mag)... went through a few of those spoons this year - wish the finish held up longer. It was Hot for multi-species.

my buddy has one that is just trashed but that thing produces.  it even went to alaska and came back.  its beat!

 

only seen the gator crush in yellow, do they have a green one also?

[finsntins]

im with you broke off,i worked the ssw both spoon and paddle and i couldnt get it to fire.

[Missdemeanor]

I noticed with slightly stained water or cloudy days the SSW was right on. The pi$$ green water was more silver or brighter spoons....like previously posted....its all what you are confident with. I'm just starting to get more confident with meat, so next season it will go out more times than not.

Dreamweaver black magics. Raspberry dolphins and moon cricket. Plus some flt spoons the I had paint up a certain way for me.

[King Slammin]

I had a horrible season due in part to a new job this yr. However when we caught, this spoon dubbed KS Special, did most of the damage.

Same spoon as last year did a majority of the damage on Lake Michigan.  Even gave a few out to others on the docks and they all said the same thing.  The one I ran all the time has teeth marks all up and down the thing....all the way to swivel.  

 

Moonshine UV/RV blue flounder pounder.  

[BAZOOKAJOE]

We did well with a red stinger on a copper blank for steelhead in the spring. That thing took 20 fish on a crazy day in May.

While we are on Erie most of the time, we did fish Wilson for May, and the Oak for a few days

in later August. Have to say, for me, the traditional go to spoons didn't do too much at all.

In Wilson, the best was a UV Warrior salmon candy; and at the Oak, a DW Sea Sick Waddler.

Interesting year too for us on Erie. I do run spoons for walleye, and the WD's usually work

pretty good. Not in 2014....was a huge stickbait bite for us, and Yecks seemed to be the best

spoon. I didn't even get one on the WD's.....

All that does is make me buy more spoons....LOL.....

[Big Water]

a few of the better ones.

[minion]

spring anything ugly for browns  FLT death from above

early summer FLT albino frog and bright and early and nbk 

also FLT psychosomatic out deep for steelys was hot
