I tried the Lite Bite Slide divers years ago and haven't regretted it at all. I run 3 on each side and I can set the lite bite tension as light as it will go so it releases on just about every hit. Even the small white perch and larger yellow perch will trip them most of the time. and another great feature is the tension for the rod can be set a little tight in rough water to prevent a lot of false releases. but with the lure tension set loose, the divers still trip on most hits.

i don't use the slide part of the diver but use a 7' seaguar premier fluro leader with an =0= ring tied on and the leader laced through the back of the divers.
