• What Is Bottom Fishing?

Bottom fishing is targeting freshwater or saltwater fish that feed in deep water or live near the bottom. This is generally accomplished by using a weight and baited hook to drop your line to the desired depth. Depending on the fish, bait can range from live or cut bait to pasty stink bait.
