Re: Slide Diver Lite Bite

I tried them when they first came out and quickly found out that they will snap lite test line easily when they release and slide to the stop. $18 bucks gone. I do like the concept though. Big John introduced me to dive bombs which I like better and are easier to use as long as your not solo. Cal P.

Cal or Big Jon do the dive bombs also take the bait away from the boat???BARRY

No, but you an run them off the boards to get em out, 3" dipsy's are good for getting them away too, I have em but they sit in my bag.

I run 4 to 6 lines most times, 2 Rod pumpers, 2 G2's off the riggers and if needed depending on the time of year, 2 stacked lines or 2 off the boards. So thier is only so much technology you can use at the same time, ha,ha. I have all the other stuff if I feel like changing things up a bit. but as I use allmost exclusively streamers now, I use whatever I can to keep them moving, pumping, jigging, back and forth, up and down with the Digitrol IV's, etc. Moving bait catches fish when all others fail, but I'm considering DYNOMITE lately.

John you forgot the shrimp. If your going to catch fish you need shrimp on the barge.I think thats why fishing has been slow.

Re: Slide Diver Lite Bite

I've run them. The concept is great, but they are a little tough to run by yourself. Kind of a handful. Much easier for me to put out a dipsy.The guy that designed them told me that I should at least use 20lb mono for the main line.

You'll find a little piece of vinyl tubing and a spring that comes with your lite bites. The spring is to be used with mono and the vinyl tubing is for braids or wire. Hope that helps.

Re: Slide Diver Lite Bite

Thanks for all the input. Hope to try it out this weekend and will let ya know.
