[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 171647, member: 412"] To answer your questions in order. 1. Drag on the bouncer, and even more drag if you have a spinner blade behind it (vs. a lindy on a bouncer). 2. No. Vertical jigging should be as close to that as possible. Current, wind, movement, and depth will all play a factor, but lots less drag on a jig. Size can vary by bait choice as well as the bait is likely to cause more drag than the jig itself. A lively large fathead needs more weight to stay vertical than does a leech or 1/2 crawler. Jig shape can change drag as well as how the bait hangs and/or sits on the bottom. [/QUOTE]
