Luhr Jensen Divers & Snubbers

A diver is a mechanism that attains depth by water pressure forcing it down. You can fish divers to 100+ feet and it's often been referred to as the "poor man's downrigger". However, they have become a tremendous tool in Salmon fishing.

The modern day divers, like the Slide Diver and the Dipsy Diver, will also dive out and away from the boat, depending on how much line you let out. This happens because of their saucer shape along with a adjustable lead keel (in most cases). Once you've mastered the simple techniques when using these remarkable pieces of plastic, you'll come to rely on them like so many anglers do today.

Why are divers so highly effective? Because in most cases they fish out and away from the boat, increasing your trolling path by 100 feet or more. The big lake trolling fishery is like a farmer plowing a field and, in simple terms, a 4 bottom plow is more efficient that a 2 bottom plow. Also, they cover areas in a stealthy, silent mode out where those spooky fish are going to go to avoid pressure.
