Hey Jas,
I have a few questions on ball bouncing for flatties.
1. Luhr Jensen reccomends a 12"-24" length of 20 to 40 lb test line from the dodger to the squid lure. What length have you had the most success with? Closer to 12" or closer to 24"? I know that the shorter the length the more action the squid lure will get from the dodger. I am planning on trying 20 lb Seguar Flourocarbon from the dodger to the squid lure. What is your opinion on this? Some times I have had good luck with flourocarbon leaders. Have you used them very much?
2. Do you use any attractant to your squid lures? Smelly Jelly, Hot Sauce, Pro Cure? Or do you add a small piece of squid to one of the trebbles?
3. Do you drift with the ball bounce set up if there is good enough current to make the dodger give the lure action? If not do you want to slow troll so that it will give the lure some action?
Thanks. I appreciate anybody's opinions on the subject.
Robert
