Does anyone know where to find BC Steel or rivrfishr spoons? I used to buy them at three rivers but they don't have squat for spoons anymore

I've heard of people not being able to get rvrfshr spoons, but I've never had a problem. Here is their website:

If you can order some rvrfshr spoons from their web site buy a lotto ticket. From what I heard they are out business from the spoon perspective. Great spoons if you can get them. But no one has been able to buy any since last September. By definition they are toast...

rvrfshr was a partnership and one partner got out of it leaving the one. There was a time when there wasn't any product but from what I understand he is back in business just within this last month.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Holy smokes!!! They are available... I thought they were on a ventilator with the right to life paperwork being signed and plugs being pulled and RIP.

This is very good news... Glad they are back as I love their spoons I hope they stay in business.

Yeah they're spendy but that's because they use good finishes not like cheap crappy spoons that are nickel plated at best. If interested in spoon fishing and why finish is so important. Check out Spoon Fishing for Steelhead by Bill Herzogg

FYI for people who like them - the new rvrphshr spoons have a varnish on them, even the 50/50's & silver plated ones...the old ones do not. I don't like the varnish personally, because I like to adjust the finishes on my spoons.

Try Lincs Tackle on Rainier Ave So. Two blocks south of Jackson street. They have lots of spoons for rivers. Its a old time fishing gear store with great older gear and tackle.

Yeah I love bc steel but cannot find them anywhere three rivers uses to carry them but they don't have squat anymore. I can't order them because my wife is home during the day and they kinda spendy. That's all I need is an earfull about spending so much for a few little pieces of metal.
