  1. Jim is spot on, keep the drag just as he said and let them take line until you feel a good, solid hookup. The dipsey's are such a direct connection you need to have the cushion that the rigger hit on mono gives you. That's the best way I can explain it. The drag has to take the place of the stretch you get with mono. But a wire dipsey can be the best ride on the boat!

  2. From what I remember it's a common 9 volt battery clip. I'd hit thrift shops or yard sales for a toy or electronic gizmo that uses a 9 volt battery and have it donate the plug. A little solder or crimp heat shrink connectors and you should be good to go.
