I tip this offering with a minnow and fish at relatively slow speeds. My top presentation is often a colored 5mm bead and a plain #4 or #2 red octopus hook. I break down how my blade selection can change over this period.Įarly in the season, generally April and early-May my bottom bouncing presentation is very simple. However, some of the best bottom bouncing bites can take place through September and into October. Beginning as early as April, bottom bouncing is most popular through the summer months. In addition to being highly productive, bottom bouncing is a presentation that can be fished throughout nearly the entire open water season. Bottom bouncing is an excellent way to cover water, while triggering both active and neutral fish.
