[QUOTE="KDM, post: 347156, member: 314"] Yep! We ran them on long featureless mud flats using husky jerks, original rapalas, and a bait called a thin fin on line counters and downrigger rods. Worked great. The issue we had is you couldn't make turns real fast and if you hit bottom with the dipsey it would trip and you had to reset it so keeping constant direction, depth, line length, and speed was important. When we got done with a run, we'd pull up shift over 30 yards and run again. Caught LOTS of nice fish doing that when they didn't want deep diver plugs or bottom bouncers. We ran the baits about 15 feet back from the dipsey which meant the rod guy had to be in the front of the boat and the net man was on the transom. Any longer and we had to hand line fish to the net. Hope this helps. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
