I like bottom bouncers too and run both, but last two trips for us the long lines out caught the bottom bouncers 3:1. Last night I dragged a bottom bouncer with a harness forever with nary a fish, finally switched the same pole to a long line weight forward and they started hitting it. Seemed to also do better with the rod in a holder rather than hanging on to it. And for some strange reason they didn't at all want it casting with a slow retrive even when you could feel it bumping bottom. Oh well, tomorrow might be reverse.

I too had luck yesterday and today long lining on the bottom. I had luck getting them to hit when I would lift and drop the rod tip or leave a little slack line out. Quick limits both days. It nice to have the luxury of throwing 15 and 16 inchers back. Back to back beautiful days out there..
