  1. not rigged. central square ny
  2. figured it would kink. ok will try.
  3. Does anyone run a section of heavy mono in front of their wire so the dipsy rods can be broken down for storage?
  4. Have way too many. These I got from another member when I first started out, he tied them. Lots of greens. First $30 takes it. Buyer pays shipping or local pickup works.
  5. TowBoatUS has a port in Oswego, just checked. I would rather use them than make a fellow fisherman pull lines and spend the rest of the day towing me in. Not saying that I wouldn't help someone out tho.
  6. TowBoatUS $60 or $68/yr. towing insurance
  7. 7'6 is too short for dipsys. you really want 9' or above
  8. the closer to the lure u put it the deeper it will go
  9. let out your leader and 2 colors and attach it there. it will not damage the core and you still get some of the lead cores snaking effect behind the bomb
  10. X2 on the big Scotty releases but usually just run one down the chute and that catches more than when I run them off boards for some reason
  11. Scott Norwood.... thats pain
  12. first browns fan i have ever seen
  13. Yep emailed them last month when the first diver got destroyed and they sent me a new one right away. Great customer service. said they'd never seen this before. Then I tried last week with the diver they sent using a ring I had and same thing happen. I didn't email again thats when I posted here, thought someone else would have the same kind of story but not looking like it. J.D. on your wire slide divers, what setting do you use? and do you use the spring?
  14. my plan was to use them all year, when the fleas show up (now) start using them on wire but keeping the mono leader for them to slide on. having to many problems now going to stick with regular and mag dipsys
  15. i will go back to using the spring. the reason i stopped using the spring was the diver would hang up on the line and not slide all the way to the bead during retrieval. but that is better than having ruined slide divers
  16. i did not take the light bite arms off. they are regular slide divers not lite bite slide divers. the way kings hit i did not feel the extra $8 a peice was necessary for the lite bite version. i can't remember a time i dragged a fish on a diver. rigger or copper sure but not a diver. but if i had the lite bites i probably would not have this problem
  17. 400 copper dont worry about the extra weight. it will take fish even without it
  18. i will repost this pic, the line goes thru the diver arm (rod side) and exits the diver out the back where the bead and snap swivel are (lure side). the lure side is where the grooves are happening.
  19. first picture i posted where the diver is really grooved is right out of the package. a size 1 no alterations run for one day of trolling.
  20. front, but that is a 4 setting so it is angled out pretty good
  21. i agree longline. but why isnt it happening to anyone else who runs them? i never tried turning the tubing b/c it is just thick mono. thought it would pinch and hold. also i stopped using the spring on the diver arm after reading another thread where guys said you don't need it when running them on mono, maybe i will go back to using it.
