What colour Dipsy Divers work best?

Everything works on a good day, just sharing what works every day

And there's your answer, everyone uses different colours but they all catch fish......confidence and proper depth/presentation is far more important.

Reading replies, looks like every color works. It's the lure you want to put in the fishies mouth anyway.
I know guys that just paint them all black.
The lure is almost 4' back anyway from the dipsy.

Good point @Fish Farmer, from everything I remember, the lures have the hooks, hence my rediculous available choice of them.

My leaders are probably 6ft in length.

#1 size in black with a greasy chicken wing gets 90% of my fish

Thanks so much!

Copper and black. Match snubbers to colours that are producing. If your running minis go all clear . Cheers

Thanks for advice

I have a friend who is using matching dipsys and lures. Here's one example, he has a number of different combinations.

This is a pretty fair example of what goes in the water on a regular basis.

I’ve never used anything other than clear dipsies with clear snubbers. 6-7’ flouro leader.

a wise old charter captain told me that the main things to worry about are DEPTH, SPEED, CADENCE(lure action) LURE SIZE and finally COLOUR.. in that order,, i have been fishing Erie for 40 years and a good graph and trolling motor is always key to catching fish,, alot of the times your surface speed dosent match your lure speed because of currents,,so some times your going 3.5 or 2.5 depending on which way your going,,i aways fish 2 directions and once i figure out the speed i stick there and wham,,,,fish on,,Pocono
