    Default bottom bouncer weight?

    what size generally? I know wind/wave condition will determine but haven't used them on Erie.. 1-2oz?

    also has anyone used a lindy rig with the floats?

    As Reel Time says 3oz bouncers on windy days and the lighter ones on calmer days. Mustad slow death rigs work well with bouncers also!
