[font "Times New Roman"][black][size 3]I was kicking around some ideas to get to those deep trout at Bear Lake. I often vertical jig and have recently been using lead line for trolling to get my offerings down to them. But wanted to open up my options a little more. I am stewing over using either bottom bouncers or even a modified drop shot setup to slowly drag behind my boat. The drop shot idea is to tie a three way swivel on my main line and the other two eyelets would handle a line for a drop shot weight and a line for my lure or bait offering.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][black][size 3]Any thoughts about this or other inexpensive ideas for trolling 100' deep water for trout would greatly be appreciated. [/size][/black][/font]

[green]I did that last year at Bear Lake. Its no big deal. Use a jig as your bottom weight, than you have 2 hooks.
