DIY Bottom Bouncer Upgrade: A Unique Walleye Fishing Technique

Here is something that I like to do when my water color gets dirty. For years I have done this and do not think many Walleye Anglers do this. So here goes. First I choose a Trout or Salmon spoon as they are light, similar to a flutter spoon. Next remove the hook from it and add a quality ball bearing swivel to both the front and rear of the spoon. Now simply clip the spoon, "narrow side" to the bottom boncer arm. Now add the spinner rig you are planning on using on the back of the spoon. I like to make my spinner rigs about three to four feet long. The spoon now acts like a flasher in dirty water so when a Walleye comes to check it out, they will smell your bait and hit it. You can either use live bait or what I have found out, that by using Berkleys Power Bait or Glup puts out more scent in the water. You can also run this set up with in-line weights for Walleye and other game fish.
