The Clarkspoon Mackerel Duster Rig with #0 Clarkspoon in Chartreuse is a very popular choice for trolling in the Florida and Gulf Coasts. These rigs are highly effective in catching Spanish mackerel and can help you fill your fish box with ease. This rig combines two widely used trolling lures, namely Mylar Dusters and the well-known Original Clarkspoon, to increase your chances of success. It features a 1/8oz mylar duster rigged on a 2/0 hook, positioned ahead of a #0 spoon, all connected by a 45lb black coated wire. The wire rigging is particularly useful when dealing with larger predatory fish like king mackerel and bluefish, as it provides additional protection. You have the option to run these rigs across the water's surface or attach them behind a planer or trolling sinker to achieve the desired trolling depth. The rig also includes a barrel swivel at the top for connecting your main line or leader, and a ball bearing snap swivel at the bottom for attaching your Clarkspoon or any other trolling lure of your choice.
