The JB Spoon is one of my favorites. It's called 'the Irresistible' The paint job is highly realistic, and the paint never chips even after countless toothy Pickerel catches. A testament as to how good this rather large Bait is, a toothy Critter bit one clean off. Never got to see the Fish. I have caught many Pickerel on the Perch Pattern.  I use the Perch, Crappie, Bluegill and the Golden Shiner patterns.

Good Baits for Early April 48-53  Water Temp . A pickerel hit that Spinner Bait pretty Good and the X-Rap was killer Jeff !
