It finds itsproper circle according to the speed given it, and revolv-ing either way prevents the line from twisting so much aswith some other spoons. Nos. 1 and 1^^ are the propersizes for Black Bass. Other trolling-spoons or baits are made in fanciful shapes,and variously styled minnows, propellers, spinners, etc.,but are no better, and many of them not so good as thoseabove mentioned ; for the nearer a spinning spoon-baitapproaches the original spoon, already referred to, themore practical and useful it becomes.
