Dipsey Diver

[welfare]

Can anyone tell me what some advantages of the different sizes of dipsey divers are?

[A-TOM-MIK]

Smaller dipsy's for stealth when targeting the upper water column (to 30 ft down)

Larger dipsy's for added depth reached (when targeting 60 to 120 down)

I would concentrate more on:

The application associated: (Braid vs mono vs wire)

&

Settings: from 1 1/2 to 3

&

Running them with rings vs. no ring

The most popular size in a Jensen would be the size 001

Running this one single diver can do pretty much all you need it to do a great percentage of the year (talking LO Salmonoids)

Just a few examples:

-No ring setting 3 running mono will target that upper 20 to 50 ft down in the water column (depending on how much line out)

-With a ring and running mono setting 2 will target to 60' down

-30# wire with ring setting 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 will achieve roughly a 3-1 ratio of line out to depth achieved

210' out will reach 70' feet down in water column

-20# wire with ring setting 2 will achieve roughly a 2-1 ratio of line out to depth achieved (out to about 150' to 180')

(for the more experienced angler)

Are you sorry you asked yet ? lol

Best of luck

And don't forget the Slide Divers with or without the Lite Bite using the interchangeable weights along with the rings to achieve different presentation depths. The light weight and ring to get way out to the side and shallow or the heavier weight and ring to get deeper than the standard weight.
