Description

As a cousin of the Viper Spoon, the Python Darter is a casting spoon designed to be fished with artificial soft plastics (such as a plastic worm) or with natural bait (such as a cut-bait strip). With every cast, your added bait to the Python Darter will come alive with enticing swimming action, producing aggressive strikes from predatory fish. Whether you like to fish your favorite lake or off the surf, the Python Darter is versatile for both freshwater and saltwater game fish, bringing your natural or artificial baits to life!
