FTM Spoon Crator 2.3g — Reliable Trout Action on Lakes and Ponds

The FTM Spoon Crator is a compact ultra-light (UL) trout spoon built for methodical water coverage and consistent hookups, even when fish are tentative.

Enticing Action from the First Turn of the Handle

The Crator's body geometry produces a seductive, wobbling swim at even the most basic steady retrieve. This predictable action makes it ideal for systematically working a lake or trout pond from top to bottom, letting you locate fish quickly without complex rod work.

Micro-Vibrations That Trigger Bites

Recessed dimples on the reverse side of the spoon generate micro-vibrations as it moves through the water. Trout detect these pulses through their lateral line, which can prompt strikes even from fish that ignore purely visual lures. The lure also handles higher retrieve speeds well, making it a useful choice during warmer summer months when trout are more active near the surface.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants of the FTM Spoon Crator share the same 2.3g weight and single hook configuration, making the whole range equally well-suited to UL spinning for trout on stillwaters. The variants differ by colour only — choose based on water clarity and light conditions:

• Bright/chartreuse tones — coloured or murky water, overcast skies

• Natural/silver/gold tones — clear water, bright conditions

• UV/flashy finishes — deeper water or low-light sessions at dawn and dusk

• Red/orange accents — when trout are keyed on small invertebrates
