Does anyone have a source for cheap spoons? I've seen the ones on amazon where you get 30 for $18. Has anybody ever tried these? I do know a couple places where you can get spoon blanks.

i like to have some cheap spoons on hand. sources: walmart, farm n fleet, etc.
they're good when you want to work slow and shallow, or prefer the spoon to drop slower than a heavier / not so cheap spoon like daredevil or little cleo.
just replace the hooks with better quality
