I am wanting to be prepared for my next trip out in the end of September. I am wanting to get a couple rods setup for dipseys or True Trips. I currently have Diawa Great Lakes 7 foot med light fast action rods for pulling boards. I really like these rods. Will they do the job pulling dipseys? Or what Diawa Great Lakes rod would you suggest. What makes a good dipsey rod? Is it the slower action so the rod loads up better. Also why are most dipsey rods 8-10 foot long. I plan on putting Diawa Sealine 17s with 30# braid on them. I will be pulling #1 dipseys and TT 40s. Thanks for all the help.
