Wire and Braid Dipsy Diver Set Up

In this video I explain one of the most effective ways to catch salmon on the big water. The tactics used are wire and braid dips divers. Each set up has their moments of catching more fish than the other. Personally I like to run both everyday of fishing because you never know when one will work better than the other.

Hello, I used a knock off of No-Fish-Nick's diver loop trick last year and it seemed to work. I don't have Nick's depth of experience to use a loop tied in my main line so what I did was tie a separate loop out of a separate small length of mono line passing through one of my micro swivel eyes. I use a micro swivel between my wire (or braid) and my leader that goes to my swivel that connects to my flasher rig. I routinely inspect and/or change out the small loop through my micro swivel from time to time to avoid break offs. I've been successful so far. I agree Tangled Tackle, NFN, Russell, and others have been very helpful. Thanks

Thanks for the nice comments! But you're giving me way too much credit. Keep up the great work.

Where did you get those Dipsy diver foam covers?

Chris and Tangled Tackle are great! I am running the same set up as you: Wire diver - deep diver and braid diver -high diver.

Where do you get the diver holders for the rod?

What are the things that are holding your dipsy divers? i've never seen those before.

I see you’re running dual magnums… are you running a 1 setting inside and a max/“4” on the outside?

[jimdrechsel]

Where did you get those pieces that store the dipseys on the rods?

Can you go little more into the slide diver setup I rigged up a braid slide diver setup with 30lb mono leader for the slide diver to slide on but when I set the diver it seems to really pinch the mono you can see where it was set or are you running the slide diver on the braid?

What do you call those holders for your dipseys that are on your rods?
