I am from Dallas and will be staying in a beach house on Surfside Beach the first week in August.
Can some one recommend specifics on a Gold spoon to use along the beach for Redfish? Single or treble hook? Spoon size? Brand?

I prefer the single hook weedless spoon in a 1/4 ounce. Texas tackle factory makes a good one as well as Johnson. The treble hook spoons work well if there isnt much grass.

from the beach , I would go with a treble hook, and a larger size. No grass to worry about. The larger sizes will cast much farther. MO

Agree w/johnson sprite 3/4 oz. I like to attach a bucktail to mine...take both silver and gold w/gold usually working better on reds and silver on trout.
Day in and day out give me an old fashioned js spoon in the surf and it will outfish anything else.

today, i got nothing on anything . silver spoons are really the only color i like. the 1oz i was talking about above is killer. you can get some LONG cast with them. i can't find the 1oz around galveston. if you happen to see some of them, please let me know. i may ask someone to pick up 2 or 3 for me.
