Nichols 4" Flutter Spoon 3/4oz Silver Chrome
The Nichols 4" Flutter Spoon in Silver Chrome is a vertical jigging lure built for anglers who want to trigger reaction strikes in deeper water and around structure. This 3/4 oz spoon delivers the erratic, fluttering action that modern bass and walleye anglers rely on—whether you're working deep channels, ledges, or suspended fish. The flutter spoon technique has become a go-to approach for targeting fish that won't commit to conventional casting lures, and a quality spoon like this one performs the part faithfully.
The Silver Chrome finish catches light and flash at depths where visibility matters, creating the profile and vibration that draw strikes. It's rigged with Owner ST-36 treble hooks finished with hand-tied flashabou for added visibility and movement in the water column. Spro Power Swivels minimize line twist during the fall and retrieve, and Worth split rings ensure reliable connection to your leader or main line. These are the hardware details that separate a spoon you'll trust from one that cuts corners.
This is a tool for anglers who understand that not every fish wants to chase a topwater or crankbait. Drop it vertically, work it with sharp, controlled motions, and let the spoon's natural action do the work. It's effective on everything from freshwater bass and walleye to saltwater stripers and other game fish that respond to a wounded-baitfish presentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a flutter spoon used for?
A flutter spoon is a vertical jigging lure that mimics an injured or dying baitfish. It's dropped to depth and worked with sharp upstrokes and controlled falls, creating an erratic flutter that triggers reaction strikes from bass, walleye, pike, and other predatory fish. It's especially effective around structure, deep channels, and when fish are suspended.
What water clarity is the Silver Chrome finish best for?
Silver Chrome works well in clear to moderately stained freshwater and provides good flash and visibility where light penetration is decent. The reflective finish catches and throws light effectively in these conditions.
What kind of fish will take a 4-inch flutter spoon?
The 4-inch size and 3/4 oz weight appeal to a broad range of freshwater and saltwater species, including largemouth and smallmouth bass, walleye, pike, and saltwater stripers. The exact species depends on what's in your water and the depth you're fishing.
What's included—is this spoon ready to tie on?
Yes, the spoon comes rigged with Owner treble hooks, flashabou, a Spro Power Swivel, and Worth split rings. You can tie it directly to your line with the split ring, or remove the ring and tie your knot if you prefer a different connection method.
