If there are no dumb questions, this one may come pretty close. . .
Are bottom bouncers used exclusively with trolling, or have any of you used them to cast from a stationary object like a boat, tube, pier, shore, etc.?
The reason I ask is I think the concept of a bottom bouncer seems smart, and they seem to be pretty effective on the 'eyes. I plan on taking my boat to Starvation soon and targeting walleyes, but I don't have a trolling motor and was just planning on casting jigs. I'm sure I could always pull anchors and drift a bottom bouncer if the wind picks up.
Any thoughts?
