Quick take
This 2 1/2 oz bottom bouncer comes as a pack of two in stainless steel, built for trolling a bait close to the bottom. Its bent wire tip keeps the weight above the bottom while the bait stays lifted off it as the boat moves. It pairs well with a braided main line and a fluorocarbon leader when running a crawler harness or minnow rig for walleye.
Best for
- Walleye trolling with crawler harness
- Deep water presentations
- Areas with heavy bottom contact needed
Skip if
- You fish shallow water with live bait
- You use heavy main line for casting
Strengths
- Stainless steel construction resists corrosion
- Bullet shape bounces naturally on the bottom
