We fishermen lost Bob Meter of Bismarck this week.  You prob don't know of him but I'm sure u have used his invention...the Bottom bouncer!!  DDSBYDAY. He made a spinner harness with a ft wire leader that worked great when the northerns were biting !

Sorry to hear this. Bob had an impact on my life, especially at Stokes Bay.

   Sorry to hear about Bob.  The bottom bouncer is a pretty handy tool to have.  Now with flourocarbon, wire leaders are not needed as much.  I have however used 7 stranded coated red wire for spinners in the past that were gator infested.

The bottom bouncer is my second choice and used quite often.  Thank you Bob and best wishes to your family.
