Two Dipseys on Same Side


Recommended Posts

I want to purchase a third dipsey rod and run two on the starboard side when conditions warrant. I upgraded all my rods to ugly sticks. I’ve been told to use a shorter rod on the inside. Ugly stick has a 7ft medium action rod that I’m thinking of  using as the inside dipsey rod. Any thoughts on using that rod as an inside wire dipsey? It’s rated for 12-20lb. The normal dipsey rod is rated for 12-30lb so I’m not sure it cam handle the stress of wire and a big king. I want to pair that with a saltist 30. Any suggestions on what wire line to get as well. Trying to get everything from fishusa. Thanks in advance

That Ugly stick sounds like it might be a little light for the wire/dipsey. Medium heavy to heavy would be better. Can't go wrong with Mason 7 strand on FISHUSA. I don't see Blood Run wire offered that I've used before.
