    Awesome! I love running 100 foot leads behind my dipsys. Gives them an amazing action!!

    I'm going to start experimenting with these because I grow tired of playing my exact science down rigger contraption. 20 to 30 feet my wife out catches me with lead core line each and every single time. I've met many fisherman who use these divers with much sucess. Good video.

    I'll never forget a morning last season late spring I snuck out in my 15' one morning and as soon as I got out of the bay I was in 3 ft rollers. Could only troll into the waves and it was too crazy to put down my rigger so I just deployed the slide diver maybe not much more than 30-40ft out and had 3 beautiful mature coho in short order before I fled to safety.

    Love your videos, my friend! Why not, for a 6 rod set up, run a copper or leadcore on a planer, and run a mag. deeper diver (set on 3), along with a standard (size 4) deeper diver set on zero? What would be your critique on such a set up, for us smaller boat guys?

    What I want to know is how to adjust speed and line length to get to the target depth. How do you know how deep it is?

    The size 0 dipsy has the clicking settings similar to the deeper. It doesn't have the numbers to indicate where you are like the size 1 or 3. With the depth chart it reads 0, 1, 2, or 3 but youve got to count out to get to that amount of offset. There are 12 total grooves in either direction. Easy enough math.

    I keep hearing the phrase 'wire diver' but I do not see a diver made for cooper wire. What is meant by wire diver?

    Thanks Russell for the very informative videos. The last few years my wire divers have really slowed down compared to a years ago. How long is your leader between the diver and the flasher/fly??? I am still running a rod length leader but am wondering with the super clear water if I need to start running super long leaders. Thanks!!
