You can use spoons to get down to the Stripers at Lake Powell, but the best tried and true method is to suspend over a school and fish anchovies. They sell anchovies in all the marinas down there, and I've caught more stripers on those than anything. They encourage you to keep all the stripers that you catch, because they're great eating, filet up nice, and they are always trying to thin the population. You can chum anchovies at Lake Powell, and that usually brings all species of gamefish in from walleye, largemouth, smallmouth, and stripers. I've caught everything when chumming anchovies, even large crappie.
If you do want to fish spoons, you'll need to find a school, then suspend the spoon down to them and make it look like a crippled shad. Of course, my favorite thing to do down there is to hit the rockpiles for smallmouth, but that's a whole different animal.
