Bottom Bouncers

[Prof T]

After reading 4 hours worth of posts from the past couple of seasons, and with some great advice from Kevin Legg, I decided to pour some bottom bouncers for the upcoming season. My fishing is on the St Lawrence these days, and 3 to 4 knot currents have a way of making bottom contact a "challenge".

 

The top bb is a Bass Pro 4 oz for size comparison. My smaller one is 4" 1/2 lead filled copper tube at 8oz. Next is a 6" at a little over 10oz. I used wire from the flags like the ones  National Grid uses to mark underground power lines. Don't stress, they can be purchased at Lowes.

 

I did pour an 8 incher on a coat hanger.... hope I never have to use it! Now I need to get out the dumbells to build up the strength to use them.

Look good. Might have some explaining to do if you get pulled over with those babies in the car!
