The Trigger Spoon is Catch America's flagship trolling spoon, tuned to draw aggressive strikes from rainbow trout and landlocked salmon at 1.5 to 3.5 mph, and it doubles as a proven bass spoon. Spotted bass and smallmouth grab Trigger Spoons at Berryessa and Rollins, whether trolled for trout or cast and jigged over structure. The 24K gold and chrome finishes maximize flash across the forage patterns that produce in Western fisheries. Available in over 50 colors.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Trigger Spoon best for?
The Trigger Spoon is a 2.25 inch spoon for trout and landlocked salmon. Its tight, high-frequency wobble mimics threadfin shad and pond smelt, the top forage in lowland lakes. Fast-trolled or cast, it triggers reaction strikes even when fish are finicky.
How fast should I troll the Trigger Spoon?
The Trigger Spoon is a fast-troll spoon, designed to run between 2.3 and 3 mph while holding its tight wobble. Use lead core line, downriggers, or snap weights to reach the strike zone. Small speed changes can trigger reaction strikes from following fish.
What color Trigger Spoon should I use?
Match the finish to the light and water. Run silver in clear water, copper in tannic or stained water, and gold in low light. Trigger Spoons are plated with genuine silver, copper, and 24k gold for flash that standard chrome cannot match.
Can you cast the Trigger Spoon or only troll it?
You can do both. The Trigger Spoon trolls, jigs, and casts from shore. Guide Cal Kellogg fan-casts the smaller Junior Trigger Spoon over schools of fish, counting it down to find the feeding depth before starting his retrieve. Let it sink, then vary your speed.
Who designed the Trigger Spoon?
The Trigger Spoon lineup was designed by Cal Kellogg, Catch America's senior lure designer, drawing on more than 30 years on the water. He hand-selected every color and finish to put fish in the net across changing depths, light, and water clarity.
What do I pair with the Trigger Spoon?
On the same trip our guides round out the trout box with Catch America Trix Minnows, a soft bait that shines when fish want a slower, natural presentation. Run the Trigger Spoon fast for reaction bites, then switch to Trix Minnows when the bite softens.
