In recent years, flutter spoons have taken the striped bass world by storm—and for good reason. When big fish are keyed in on bunker or herring, few presentations match the effectiveness of a wide, dying flutter. The Tsunami Pro Flutter Spoon has quickly become one of the standout options in this category, especially throughout the Northeast striper fishery.
Built for both durability and fish-catching performance, this spoon is designed to trigger aggressive strikes from even the most pressured fish.
Design & Construction
The Tsunami Pro Flutter Spoon is constructed from 100% stainless steel, giving it excellent durability and corrosion resistance in harsh saltwater environments.
What really stands out is the hardware:
-
SaltX 4/0 treble hook – razor sharp and extremely strong
-
Ball-bearing swivel – reduces line twist during vertical jigging
-
Welded stainless rings (264 lb rating) – built for big fish battles
The spoon is finished with high-quality electroplating and automotive-grade paint, producing intense flash that mimics large baitfish.
Bottom line: this is not a cheap spoon—it’s built to last season after season.
Action
What makes this lure special is its erratic fluttering action. The spoon is designed with a slightly unstable profile, allowing it to:
-
Fall with a side-to-side wobble
-
Imitate a wounded or dying baitfish
-
Trigger reaction strikes on the drop
That flutter is deadly when fish are suspended or feeding below bait schools. According to Goose customer reports, the spoon’s movement has proven “irresistible to jumbo striped bass” when fished on the drift or vertically over marks.
This is especially effective when targeting fish holding 15–30 feet down under herring pods.
Size & Versatility
The Tsunami Pro Flutter Spoon comes in two primary sizes:
-
9-inch – ideal for matching medium bunker and herring
-
11-inch – a true “trophy hunter” profile for big bass
It’s also available in:
-
Standard and heavy weights
-
Colors like chrome, pearl, and chartreuse
This versatility allows anglers to adapt to:
-
Depth
-
Current
-
Forage size
When & How to Fish It
This spoon shines in a few key scenarios:
1. Under Herring/Bunker Schools
Drop it below feeding bait and let it flutter down naturally.
2. Vertical Jigging Deep Water
Perfect for targeting fish marked on electronics.
3. Slow Drift Presentations
Let the spoon work with minimal input—the action does the job.
Pro tip: Most strikes happen on the drop, so stay alert and keep slight tension on the line.
