Buds Diver??

[Scalloper 1]

Any of you use them? I watched a few videos on them yesterday but they were all from 6 years ago. I could see their advantage

I have used buds divers. They mostly perform as advertisements. Do you have questions.

I am just wondering why I have not read or seen anyone use them considering they have been out for 6-7 years.

How often do you use them and would you recommend trying 1-2?

[Earl28]

My first year on lake ontario I used them each time I when out. +20. My first year I only used 6 rods and found them very versatile and they catch.

I used them as drivers, sub surface planers and weighted lines.

I used them as drivers, slide driver, sub surface planers, and weighted lines.

Could they be used as a stacker on a rigger to get the top bait out away from the bottom bait while fishing bottom for lakers?

[Earl28]

I am not sure I know what you mean.

If I am understanding I would not. To much blowback.

So I was thinking put one bait out say 20' off the ball then set the stacker out 10-15' hook up the Buds then let out 15-20' of line and stack that one just above the ball.The "Stacker" with BudsDiver without the weight should go out 10-15 feet out from the ball

I never used them that way. I would think without the wieght the track will be unpredictable and prone to tangling.
