I haven't used the Luhr Jensen Dipsy Diver, but I have used the Luhr Jensen Jet Divers. The nice thing about the Jet Diver, is they make them to dive to certain depths. So you can get individual divers that will dive to 10 feet or down to 50 feet, in increments of 10 feet.
I tried the Jet Diver, but then went to lead line. A diver puts a certain amount of pressure on your pole. Lots of guys like them. They are most commonly used for back trolling for salmon to get the lure or bait to the bottom of deep holes in a river.
I'll probably give them another chance at some point. One thing to keep in mind is the diver will tend to take the "fight" out of the fish since they put a lot of drag on the line.
The Dipsy Diver looks like a nice diver, since it includes a trip for easy retrieval.
I'd like to hear what you experience is though when you try them out.
On BassPro there are quite a few reviews. I am sure there are all sorts of videos on youtube on how to use divers and fine tune them.
Good luck and have fun with your boat this summer.
