<p>Thanks for the replies, Looks like I am going to have to visit Bass Pro,Gander Mountain and Cabelas to find some more small spoons. I have watched some of Bill's videos and that is where I got started. It just took me a while to try the method out. I am going to work on it this year tho.</p>

<p>You still cannot beat a Dardevle "Skeeter" spoon. It's the smallest one that Eppinger makes. Comes in two gauges, but the same tiny size with a double hook. Comes in many colors, too many to decide on! I love this spoon. Fish SLAM it when used on very light line and on a slow steady retrieve. Don't use a swivel, just a loose loop knot.</p>

One of the best artificials I've used for gills is a Johnson Silver Minnow in the micro size.<br />
I've started tying a spoon fly version for this season
