[QUOTE="shorthairsrus, post: 261607, member: 219"] I luv Bank Ratting ---Shore fishing beats boat fishing 100 to 1 -- for fun and relaxing. I hate devils lake shores as they are buggy and to many rocks to climb on. I luiv the big MO to bank rat. Anyway -- I have not used bottom bouncers --- my thought was always that the fish grabs the bait and it always helped to have slippage and the line has to be free so that the fish would not let go. Bottom bouncer unless if fished at the end of ones rod is going to lay down if you throw it out to far. My gpa was a total bank rat --- he tried every weight in the box --- pencil worked good along with those flat weights. Go as light as one can for the current --- pop the rod up when you reel in --- a nice strong hvy/med bass rod 7 foot plus --- a good tug to the sky and the weight seems to come loose no matter what were using. Yes some times I Get stuck. Now going back to bottom bouncers -- i was in wade's the other day ago and he showed us the b bouncers that he has with floats on them --- he said they made for women to fish (my wifes eyes went to the ceiling) -- she didnt buy any -- but they would stay up in a lake situation. In the river used by a bank rat ---they would drift down stream. Wade (dakota tackle)has every weight known to man -- go see em - i bet he has the ticket for you. [/QUOTE]
