[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]I agree with Gumbo. Dipsy Divers have there place. You can do it all with a rigger more precisely and still fish your lighter rigs. Plus if you're on a two pole permit lake, you can stack riggers and cover the whole water column.[/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]a guy can buy a rigger for well under $100 especially on ebay so the cost may be a bit higher initially then that a dipsy diver but the added versatility is well worth it in the long run. [/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]The hardest part with the dipsy diver is knowing exactly where you are as far as depth. They have charts that get you pretty close though. Line counter reels help also.[/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]IFG & I were running riggers and a dipsy diver at the same time for kokes this weekend while trolling Horseshoe Canyon. We were using it to get close to the canyon wall where the kokes were stacked up. It was a cool set up in that situation.[/size][/font]
