flasher/fly behind dipsey

[mrhookup]

How do you guys set up a flasher and fly combo behind a dipsey diver with leader length and such?

[Priority1]

YES. Leader lengths about 18 inches long. Your overall length off snubber & leaders behind the Dipsy should NEVER exceed the rod length.

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!

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.
