Backbouncing is a SPECIAL TECHNIQUE used primarily by Northwest steelhead and salmon anglers. To fish a pool or run, heavy lead is used to put your bait right on the bottom and, with the help of the current, literally bounce your bait downstream, keeping it right in the fish's face. Consequently, the rod you choose depends on the power necessary to lift the weight off the BOTTOM and still have sufficient power to set the hook with authority. A heavy-duty rod with a stiff tip is crucial, because many times the fish are smack dab in the heaviest current and you need a lot of lead. (Not to mention the fact that KING SALMON can weigh in excess of 90 pounds.)

Quantity	Model	Length Pieces	Line Weight LureSize	Action Guides	Our Price
	BBR904C-GL2	7'6" 1	12 - 25 1 - 6	H N/A	$ 215.00
	Preferred by anglers fishing smaller, shallow rivers, this model has plenty of power to handle large steelhead and salmon. It also makes a good light sturgeon rod. It has a long rear grip, and comes with a graphite trigger reel seat. Handle Style: 13. This is a non stocked, special order item. Shipment time varies per manufacturer.

	BBR964C-GL2	8'0" 1	12 - 25 1 - 6	H N/A	$ 220.00
	A stout, 8-foot version of our original backbouncing rod, designed mainly to fish for steelhead and salmon on larger rivers with heavy current. The extra length makes it a good choice for deep-water runs and pools where extra weight is needed and line control is more of an issue. Handle Style: 13. This is a non stocked, special order item. Shipment time varies per manufacturer.

	BBR966C-GL2	8'0" 1	25 - 45 3 - 10	MH N/A	$ 240.00
	This is Alaska's version of the backbounce rod. Designed to fish extremely heavy current and big baits, this rod is strong enough to handle the giant salmon of the Kenai. Not for the faint of heart. Heavy line, big weights and virtually zero drag. Handle Style: 14. This is a non stocked, special order item. Shipment time varies per manufacturer.
