Parsons Lures 5/16 oz Flutter Spoon — Slow Fall, Big Flash
This is the same body size as the Parsons 7/8 oz casting spoon, but built for a completely different job.
At just 5/16 oz, this flutter spoon gives you the full 4-inch spoon profile without the weight that forces a fast drop. The result is a slower, wider flutter that hangs in the strike zone longer and flashes on the fall instead of knifing straight down.
If you’ve ever wished a casting spoon would slow down without downsizing the bait, this is that answer.
Because the spoon body is identical in size to the 7/8 oz version, you’re still showing fish a big, confident meal. But the reduced weight changes everything — lighter line loads, easier rod work, and a more natural fall that shines in cold water, pressured fish scenarios, or anytime fish want movement without speed.
This spoon really excels when fish are suspended, roaming edges, or reacting to flash more than vibration. Snap it, lift-and-drop it, or let it free-fall — the lighter weight lets the spoon do the work instead of fighting gravity.
Built by Parsons Lures, this is a purpose-built flutter spoon, not a downsized casting spoon pretending to be something else.
