Rapala DJH Lures?

[Moldman]

Fellow Fishers, I would like to buy a few DJH's and need some advice on size and hot colors. I see that the DJH10 runs 7'-16' trolling and the DJH12 runs 8'-19', If I purchase DJH10's and need to go alittle deeper can I just add some in line weights? Am I correct in buying the 10's and what colors seem to work the best? Any help is deeply appreciated. Thanks

First we need to know what body of water you are fishing if its lake Erie or Saginaw bay get some 10s and 12s

Hi Moldman,

I have a pretty good selection of DHJ12's and agree with you, depth is often an issue. I watched the following video from Mark Romanack:

I rigged the Tadpoles like he shows in the video, and with that info, you can get a lot more depth options. I have used them walleye fishing on Lake Erie and they work fine. Actually caught some fish.

Also tried them on Lake Michigan. I'm convinced I'm jinxed. We've had a tough year out of St. Joe and South Haven. Anyway, if you go with the smaller DHJ's the Tadpoles give some great options and they have a good depth chart. I felt it was easier to control depth with them then inline weights.

Just a thought.
