Shimano Adds Amy Spoon to Its North America Fishing Team

Shimano North America Fishing is proud to announce the addition of Amy Spoon of Montesano, Washington, to its Pro-Staff, where she will represent the brand throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Charleston, SC – A lifelong angler, Spoon grew up on the Wynoochee River and along the Washington coast, developing a profound connection to salmon, steelhead, and saltwater species. Amy is known for her mastery of drift and float fishing techniques, blending skill with a deep respect for the fisheries and local ecosystems she calls home.

“Shimano and G. Loomis have been more than just the gear I trust,” said Spoon. “They’ve been a bridge to new opportunities, new waters, and a group of people I’m proud to call friends.”

As part of her role with Shimano, Spoon will support product development, test new gear in real-world conditions, and share her expertise with anglers throughout Western Washington.

“We’re beyond excited to welcome Amy to the team. Her expertise and understanding of Pacific Northwest fisheries will be a real asset to the Shimano North America Fishing Pro-Staff,” said Kade Gewanter, Freshwater Marketing Manager.
