Spoons?

My husband plans to fish with spoons on his spinning rod for steehead in BC. I just saw some spoon flies for casting with a flyrod at the flyshop today. One of them was shrimp colored. Hmmm. Methinks one could cast one with a speyrod. Or would this be "bad form"?

 

I could learn how to tie them here:

Should work but you had better put a swivel on one of those babies. I think from a casting point of view on steelhead there are a lot of other patterns that would be more suitable. I always try to contact local fly shops to see what is popular for the river at a given time.
