Hello,
I'm trying to find out about a spoon type lure that I think is called a Rauto ? It is used for Arctic char fishing. I am trying to find out where they are made and how they are rigged for vertical jigging ?

Hello !
Rauto was originally made by swedish Abu. It was very popular (and still is among same fishermans) from 60´s at least late 80´s. Here is link for one english page, where you can find tips for using Abu Rauto:

Here is links for same kind of lures, which are made in Finland:

Unfortunately language is mostly finnish, but i hope you get some information. Also googling " Abu Rauto" can be useful.
