Too slow. You might as well be fishing with a live shrimp and a cork

Out of our last three trips what put the first red in the boat, spoon man...
I believe the score is Chalk 2 reds on a jig and Birddog 1 red on a spoon....

I believe the last trip was Birddog= 1 red on topwater and 3 on the spoon. Chalk= waving from the stands.

I'm a firm believe that a lot of people fish spoons too fast. Reds like a lure that moves fairly slowly. I pretty much never fish spoons, but I do fish spinnerbaits and buzzbaits for them. When buying spinnerbaits or buzzbaits for redfish I buy the lightest ones with the largest blades I can find. It's pretty much like slow rolling spinners for bass, only slower. Jigs are always my go to lure. I don't go fishing without a jig on at least one rod.

Well, let's just agree that "everyone's got their own style".
