I would replace the mono with braid and run the slide diver on that, and a run a traditional diver on the wire.  Just my opinion

What pound braid?

30-50#

No mono on a dipsey ... doesn't work well. You do not want a stretchy line on dipsey.

Rather go with braid, better yet, another wire.

X2 for having 2 dipsys rods. I like wire so fleas aren't an issue

Got my 300 copper spooled today. Won't braid be bad for fleas?

Yes the flees love braid. Go with wire for the dipsey just keep inspecting it for pig tails and kinks.

If you’re using a slide diver you will either want braid, or wire tied to braid. You don’t want to set the slide diver on wire

I used 30# PP for everything, till I started using slide divers. Do yourself a favor and go with 50# PP they lock up better with or without that little piece of tubing. Then just leader down with fluro to the business end. Some days that is a killer rig when all else fail. Some days you can't buy a bite. More so on the positive side though!!

Ok. So how many feet of braid do I need?

If you put some mono leader on your wire and copper rods it makes them break down nice for storage. I use 50# leader on my wires for my dipsys and 20# on my copper. I use a spro swivel in between.

Any snubbers used?

I don’t use any snubbers. It depends on the user. I think I get more hookups without them.

I use the Dteam Weaver rip cord and haven't had any problems with it.
