Monkey Lures Monkey Spoon 'El Chapo' 1.5 g

Monkey Lures Goes Trout Area

After a successful prototype series and plenty of demand, the Monkey Spoon from Monkey Lures is here. With 3 different shapes and varying weights, this spoon covers a wide range of applications and is your new secret weapon at the trout lake. A high-frequency action paired with striking finishes full of attention to detail makes these spoons a serious addition to any trout area angler's box. The high-quality paint of the well-known and popular Monkey Lures colour schemes is protected against damage - for example during transport - by a double coat of clear lacquer. Monkey Spoons are finished differently on each side, creating a distinctive 'on-off effect' in the water. This strong colour contrast delivers visual stimulus, drawing salmonids in not only through pressure waves but optically as well. All Monkey Spoons also have the weight stamped into the back, so you can spend every minute fishing rather than rummaging through your box.

The "El Chapo" - Small Spoon, Big Results

The Monkey Spoon "El Chapo" is the smallest model in the range, weighing 1.5 g. It has a classic, slightly oval shape. This spoon works even at the slowest retrieve speeds, generating strong pressure waves through lateral breakout movements. Across all 3 variants of the Monkey Spoons, a thin material was chosen to amplify this high-frequency action still further - guaranteed to get the attention of trout. Thanks to its weight, the "El Chapo" is perfectly suited to the upper to mid water column, where it reliably tempts feeding salmonids. It works best when retrieved steadily at a slow to medium pace, but you can also let it sink and retrieve it with a jigging action - the takes are something else. The compact shape means this light spoon still casts exceptionally well, so you can reach your target spots without any fuss.

A Hook Like No Other

The hook developed exclusively by Monkey Lures has been tailored specifically to the demands of trout lake fishing and brings several advantages with it. The high-quality material of the extremely sharp hooks guarantees long service life. To cut down on missed strikes, the team at Monkey Lures went with a new hook shape and improved on the standard properties of a spoon hook. A shortened hook shank and a hook point that runs parallel to the tip ensure that even the lightest touches stick. On top of that, the hook point is angled 7° to the right, which increases the hook-up rate when a fish takes the spoon sideways. To avoid spooking the sometimes wary and canny salmonids, both the hook and split ring are finished in matt black. This minimises light reflection, keeping the attention of the predators firmly on the enticing colour scheme.
