Hey fellas, as mentioned in a different thread, I'm relatively new to fishing. I'll primarily be fishing the larger lakes around the okanagan., this rod set up im planning to target lake trout. I have a Shimano tekota 500LC and want to get a decent rod to pair it with. Anyways I've tried searching a bit but haven't found a good answer yet as to wether or not its a good, bad or doesn't make much difference if a dipsy rod is run in a downrigger? Finding a 8' MEdium light downrigger rod is proving difficult and the 9'ones I've found, near as I can tell from the shimano website is that its a dipsy rod.
I guess thats the long winded way of asking what others opinions and past experiences would be on this?
