Bottom fishing is the act of fishing the bottom of a body of water. A common rig for fishing on the bottom is a weight tied to the end of the line, and a hook about an inch up line from it. Bottom fishing can be both done from boats and from coasts. Bottom fishing can produce many fish, but is most productive at getting sucker fish, bream, catfish, and crappie (in the right conditions). Specialized fishing rods called donkas are also commonly used for bottom fishing.
