St. Clair River Walleye - Bottom Bouncing

[@MEK_89]

Good stuff man! Good to see you on the tube brotha!

[@discoverangling4892]

Thanks, MEK! Appreciate it. 😎

@@discoverangling4892 Fasho man!

[@raff9938]

Thanks for the advice

[@discoverangling4892]

You bet, glad it was helpful.

Great video brotha! I never bottom bounced before, but definitely good info. Lmao at the treasure you caught!

[@discoverangling4892]

Thanks Vince. Yea I dig it. I think it’s pretty rewarding and not terribly difficult.

[@EternalAngler]

Bottom Bouncing catches all sorts of things like an Ugly Stick, lol, that's hillarious. Oh yeah that perch color rapala will get'em, how about glass ghost rapala, my favorite color. I'll have to try that bottom bouncing one day, looks like fun! How about a catch and cook next time!

[@discoverangling4892]

Dude I think that glass ghost would destroy them. Bottom bouncing is relatively easy and you can outfit yourself for under $30. Walleye gear is cheap, IMO. I can see a catch and cook, but my walleye recipes are currently a bit unadventurous. That could change though.

@@discoverangling4892 everything's adventurous on the tube lol. Yeah dude, be nice to try that one day! Looking forward to the next clip 🤟🥴

Great video, I really like that method. I would tend to get hung up alot just drifting the crawler harness around the bottom. I'm gonna have to give it a try.

[@discoverangling4892]

Thanks Mark! The stretch we were on was a pretty snag free area. The bottom is primarily small rocks, kinda like cobblestones. Not a ton of weeds so hang ups are rare.

[@davidmarks7787]

Great video. Thanks for posting. Do you ever troll down stream or do you only drifting with the current.

[@discoverangling4892]

Thanks David. We just drift. I have seen guys troll before. Where we are, there’s a fairly decent current so trolling isn’t really needed, but that’s not to say it can’t be done in some areas.

[@NorthernMike]

Nice. I was going to ask if you were anchored but I believe you said you guys were drifting. Was there a way you guys were keeping the boat from turning in the current?

[@discoverangling4892]

Correct, just drifting. Not really controlling our drift. I suppose a trolling motor would benefit a smaller craft for that, but ours was a larger kinda party boat so it didn’t get knocked around as much.

[@garymeldrum949]

Ya in Algonac we troll downriver just fast enough to get the blade spinning

[@discoverangling4892]

That’s cool. I hear more and more about trolling with the current. I should try it someday. We typically just drift.

[@wincityoutdoors]

I’m just wondering do you still have that ugly stick ? Will buy it cash 😂 nice video brother.

[@discoverangling4892]

Haha thanks dude. No, I carried it back to land and we threw it in the trash. I’ll hit you up next time I find one and give you first dibs lol 😁
