Nichols 5" Flutter Spoon 1 1/8oz Shattered Glass Scale
The Nichols 5" Flutter Spoon in Shattered Glass Scale is a proven blade lure built for bass and pike anglers who've embraced the modern spoon-fishing technique. At 1 1/8 ounces, this mid-sized flutter spoon delivers the erratic, seductive fall and horizontal wobble that triggers aggressive strikes in deeper water and structure. Whether you're working around ledges, thermoclines, or weed lines, this spoon's action mimics the panicked escape of a baitfish — the kind of flash and flutter that catches the eye of big predators.
The Shattered Glass Scale finish combines reflective and translucent elements to create a lifelike appearance in a range of light conditions. Nichols equips this spoon with quality Owner ST-36 treble hooks, each adorned with hand-tied flashabou for additional attraction. The rig includes a Spro Power Swivel and Worth split ring, components chosen to withstand the head-shaking runs and tackle-testing power of trophy fish.
Flutter spoon fishing has evolved from a niche technique to a dominant approach in both tournament and recreational fishing. This 5-inch profile sits in the sweet spot for visibility and castability — weighty enough to reach deep zones and light cover, responsive enough to impart that signature flutter on the fall with minimal rod manipulation. Pitch it, let it helicopter down, twitch it back, and repeat. It's simple, it works, and it's become the go-to for anglers serious about vertical presentations and suspended fish.

How deep can I fish this spoon?

Many anglers fish them vertically around deep structure, letting the spoon's natural flutter do the work.
