OK I am talking totally out of my non mouth body orifice here, but I think I could just cast a spoon with a fly rod without a lot of trouble. Strip off some line, short tippet, and load the rod on the back cast with the spoon and then let 'er fly just releasing the stripped line.

It's the kind of thing I would have done as a kid, and now that I feel more like a kid than I have since I was a kid, maybe I'll try it.

And maybe I'll try dropping a spoon under a bobber float and trotting it down a slot like a plug.

Have we figured out a date and location for the SpoonFly Festival yet?
