Looked at Mortac website are these spoons that they offer similar in quality with Little Cleos? The price is half the cost of Little Ceos. Info would greatly be appreciated.

Yes...these are the ones. The only difference I have noted is you definitely want to use a snap swivel, snap-lock or split ring at the top of the Mortac spoon, as the edges of the hole seem to be a bit sharper than the Little Cleo's, and will cut through your line. But the price and quality are definitely worth it.

oops...can you tell I'm a rookie? I almost forgot to add "IMHO"... :p

Spoonman,
Mortacs are very similar to little cleos. Cleos come in many different sizes and weights.Mortacs are all the same size but 3 different weights.If you carry Mortac sizes 1,2,3, and a teardrop steelie-spoon or something similar you can cover just about all water types.I like the smaller cleos for summer flows and trout.

P.S. don't forget to carry a couple of spinners too.

why would you ever not use a swivel with a spoon?
