poor copy of a classic killer lureIn my salmon-sea trout et c. lure collection I have had one Coho King spoon (long out of production) for many years and caught lots of fish with it, so I was happy when I noticed a lure apparently similar to it had re-appeared (the SH Coho Killer) - I ordered six. Examining these I noticed the following: 1) both the SH Coho Killer and the old Coho King have identical shape, length and appear to have been stamped from a similar tool except for a recessed area on the SH Coho Killer for a stick-on eye; 2) the SH Coho Killer spoons are stamped from thin cheap steel(?) and are very light in mass, while the Coho Kings (same size) were stamped from much heavier finely tooled smooth brass - this makes the SH Coho Killer more of a flutter spoon that tends to spin at anything more than a slow trolling speed and casts poorly - the Coho King both casts and trolls well with a slower rolling action and minimal line twisting; 3) both the SH Coho Killer and the Coho King have very strong welded stainless steel rings front and back, but the SH Coho Killer looks very fragile with it's cheap flexible steel body - I would not be confident in the durability of this lure during a fight with a decent sized fish - it's going to bend like tinfoil; 4) the SH Coho Killer lacks the swivel present on the top end of the Coho King (which will exacerbate the twisting problem) and also lacks the silver plated spinner blade that is attached to the tail ring of the Luhr Jensen Coho King. I am not confident in the odd double-angled hook on the SH Coho Killer so I have replaced these with Siwash hooks (and a spinner blade of my own). Another issue is that this lure is designed to resemble a sandlance (sandeel) Ammodytes spp., that have their eye very close to their nose - the SH Coho Killer does not simulate this very well. IN SUMMARY: I am very disappointed in the SH Coho Killer lure - I think it is a poorly made copy of a much better lure from the past. The one cheer I would give to the SH Coho Killer lure is the excellent variety and apparent durability of paint finishes and colours available. I do hope some other firm (or maybe Silver Hoard?) markets a 'real' quality version of this spoon soon because it is a killer as sandlance are a preferred prey of salmon and sea trout.

Found this lure in July. Since then I've caught Chinook, Pink, Coho, and Lake trout. Great lure.

My go to lureBy far the most effective salmon spoon I have used. Like everything else it has its time and place to be fished and you have to go thru about half of your tackle box to find out what works. I always start with various colors of the Coho Killer and a cut plug green label herring at various depths. My honest opinion is that you can always scratch up a salmon with one of these if they are around. I fish the Washington Oregon coast and the Strait of Juan de Fuca and you will never catch me without an assortment of these.
