Getting Deep --> DIPSY DIVERS & JET DIVERS

[YAWN]

After getting skunked I am determined more than ever to make sure that doesn't happen again.

Gotta get deep and u can't exactly use a down rigger in a canoe comfortable especially when u need to portage in and have the motor and all your gear just no room.

Found these what do you think? Simple fix or fools gold?

Or anything else anyone can recommend to keep in the box to take care of those deep lakes?

Try a torpedo diver or a simple 3 way weighted swivel(it actually works) got a nice walleye on it 2 weekends ago.

You could use a min troll which is a down rigger that can be mounted to the side of the canoe and sells for about a hundred bucks. If you are going to use dipsy divers, then you need different rods, that can handle the load of the dipsy, so the mini troll may be a less cumbersome way to go.
