I use slide diver when the fish are in close and are hitting stickbaits, 50ft or less spring/ fall coho, summer steelhead. Thinfins, thundersticks, j-11/j-13. I run them to add a little depth instead of putting weight or running longer line out on planer boards. 15-20ft is what I run them from diver and on zero setting 20-30ft back. Mike

I have one setup that has never seen the water.  I like the idea of it just never found the opportunity or need for it since we got it on the boat yet.  

Here are a couple videos for them with some good info.

Always ran. Eliminates need for snubbers (chinook, steelhead) as well as getting lures further behind boat when necesary
