What Size Dipsy Diver For Lake Erie

I was going to get some dipsy divers, but I saw the different sizes and non sure what I should go. Do they come with the rings or are those an option I should have?
Thank you,
Bruce

#i dipsy�s work well for me. I have #0�s as well merely it takes a lot of line to go them downwards

Go the #1 size.I roughen the surface to glue the band to the dipsey with super mucilage.Ring sometimes comes loose.

I adopt the Dreamweaver Deep Diver 107MM no ring to mess with and comes with qaulity swivels.

Bank check them out https://www.tacklehaven.com/dreamwea...se-your-color/

Good luck,

but I went a stride farther and got the light bite slide diver and use information technology like a regular diver. I use a piece of heave line about 15" long that I tie to an O-RING and so lace it through the back going through the lite bite arm and so tie on my snubber and attach a 6' or 7' 20# fluro leader and so the lure. set the lite seize with teeth loose so small fish tin trip the diver.

but I went a stride further and got the low-cal bite slide diver and use it like a regular diver. I use a piece of heave line about 15" long that I necktie to an O-Ring then lace it through the back going through the lite bite arm then tie on my snubber and attach a 6' or 7' 20# fluro leader then the lure. prepare the lite bite loose so small fish tin trip the diver.

Do the Calorie-free Bite Slide divers have an adaptable weight like a dipsy then that you can run multiple per side?

I've never used dipseys. Why do you guys apply them over planer birds or Tru trip divers? Thanks

yes the low-cal bite diver works but like a dipsy but has the aligning to the lure to release on small fish. I have mine set loose plenty that information technology releases on virtually white perch while walleye fishing on erie. they besides have a kit with a 7 oz weight for getting deep. I run iii rods per side on erie with the standard weight and pocket-sized ring, simply they do come with large and small band. and i've been using them for a few yrs at present and not ane ring has come off.

Dipseys work great considering if you want to troll spoons out abroad from the boat, you tin can practice that with a dipsey, instead of a tru-trip/jet behind an inline planer board.

Dipsey leads are usually shorter. They are faster to prepare, faster to check, etc. You can run them as deep equally you want, and even pull small billed creepo baits behind them but nonetheless get them down to xl'. Etc

They are not the be all terminate all, but just another great tool in the tackle box.

I take mine set loose enough that it releases on most white perch while walleye fishing on erie. they also have a kit with a 7 oz weight for getting deep. I run 3 rods per side on erie with the standard weight and small ring, but they do come with large and minor ring. and i've been using them for a few yrs at present and non one ring has come off.

Cheers for the update. I need to buy some dipsys and I'chiliad wondering nearly spending the extra few bucks for these - based on your referral. I have a difficult time picturing the setup you've explained, but might have you transport me a picture onetime.

Can yous troll harnesses behind dipseys? How about Bandits?

Dipsey leads are usually shorter. They are faster to set, faster to check, etc. You tin can run them every bit deep as you want, and even pull small billed crank baits behind them but still go them down to 40'. Etc

They are not the be all finish all, merely just some other cracking tool in the tackle box.

Thanks for the update. I need to buy some dipsys and I'k wondering about spending the extra few bucks for these - based on your referral. I accept a hard time picturing the setup you've explained, merely might accept you send me a motion-picture show former.
