Bottom Fishing for walleyes Bouncer

Over the years, I have talked about the effectiveness of the game worm. Now, knowing that a partner, the gorilla in the background. Together they make Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid fishing for Alaska.

It is a perfect platform for the type fishing I do best, and that's drifting over schools of fish to keep the bite going whenever I can. Other anglers prefer to troll, but produces boat noise that spreads the skitterish Alaska. For the drift that only see my shadow.

But there is a limitation in the bottom bouncer. It is only effective when there is a wind strong enough to push the boat along a 1 –

2 mph clip. Not to worry, however. Lake Erie breezes are appropriate to "bounce" on most days, especially during spring and fall.

Apart from the platform, fishers need a special rod and reel. Just use the one with, but make sure the reel is spooled with plenty of line 10

Pounds or more evidence to support the weight of drag.

On average, a gorilla bottom of an ounce is enough. But it is advisable to keep five or six in number dollars in reserve. If I need more weight, I will put a drag on the wire barrel bottom and bend over the end to keep lead in place.

What I have not yet mentioned about this method of fishing in Alaska is that you do not have to do a casting. Only by falling into water, let out enough to drag the line the bottom (you will feel the same) and hold on. It is the ideal approach to novice fishermen drive a trophy walleye.

I'm not sure less invented the gorilla but he or she must have been a fisherman who likes simplicity. After all, is only half a piece of wire about 18 inches long lead with a piece of molding on it. The upper section is folded into a 90 –

degree angle.

Attach a snap turn and is ready for action. Back in the day the fishermen did gorillas bottom metal hangers that came from the local dry cleaners. They are now widely available at discount stores and bait and tackle shops for around $ 1.50 and come in a few provocative colors.

I am a bit particular when This worm harness that I can use with a gorilla. Most that do are for the issue and only about 24 inches long. They like to be around 30

–

36 inches behind a gorilla. There are two reasons for this: to separate the bait from the weight and keep the blade, hook worm and so close to the bottom as possible without catching a disadvantage.

The boat lurches as the waves will put a lot of action in the harness and the lower cable drag the background to create a bit of noise walleyes to be investigated. When it does, it will be difficult for them to resist leaf crawlers Night.

When I buy new goalkeepers usually less than tweak a little. Most manufacturers only bend the wire together at the top where is connected to your line. Sometimes the platform will become tangled when the line slides down to the ballast. To cure this problem I put a metal collar (see photo). I wish the manufacturer would address this problem during production.

Although it is difficult to know how much line to let out the Fishing with a background guard must be able to feel the power of the lower score. But if you can not here's a tip: keep on hand a black felt

Ball point pen.

When you connect your first fish quickly mark the line on the spool. For the next fish dropped the line to the mark black. Or you could spend more money on a contrary line. But that is their choice.
