Default Fishing with spoon

Anyone fish using a spoon? I read a recent article about spoons being
very much weedless so I gave it a try. I _really_ liked the way it
behaved in the water! I could skim it across the top or let it dive. I
could through it up in the thickest cover and pull it right out. I
could even jump it over objects like a shad. I've only been able to
fish the spoon for about 3 hours so far. I had one short bite from a
bass and then caught a gar (so I guess it looks like a wounded fish).
Gar are just nasty .

So, how many people here use a spoon? If you don't, why not? If you use
a spoon, do you use a trailer? Mine came with a silver/foil trailer
that looks good.
