mrhookup Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 How do you guys set up a flasher and fly combo behind a dipsey diver with leader length and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priority1 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 YES. Leader lengths about 18 inches long. Your overall length off snubber & leaders behind the Dipsy should NEVER exceed the rod length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satisfaxion_Gauranteed Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I personally buy extra long rods, normally 9-9 1/2' for my dipseys just for running flasher/fly combos. Including my snubber, my leader to my fish catcher will be ~3'. Add to that my 4' of leader to the fly or 4' long 3fly rig, and I'm already at 7+' of total length, which gives me a foot or two of play for different setups.I agree with not making it longer than the rod. That's just a hassle to set, not to mention tougher to net that huge man eating fish on the other end when it hits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLF Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I am running 10 1/2' wire rods with my divers. I am running a 6' leader with a 1' snubber, between my dipsey and flasher. I will run between an 18-24" lead from the flasher to the fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
