Description
Key Features and Usage
- Patented Action: Unlike traditional dodgers with just a side-to-side sway, the Double D Dodger has a patented action that constantly speeds up and slows down your trailing lure, mimicking the action of a boat making S-turns, which often triggers fish to strike.
- Versatile Attachment Points: The dodger features five attachment points, which allow you to manipulate its action and also spread your lines out to cover more water, preventing tangles. The packaging includes a diagram to guide proper usage for desired effects.
- Side Planer Functionality: By using a non-center attachment point, the dodger will pull away from the boat, acting as a side planer to help increase your spread and keep lures away from the boat's path.
- Customizable: The non-painted versions are flexible, allowing you to bend and shape the dodger to get a custom action, though using the designated attachment points is generally recommended as the most effective method.
- Trolling Speed: It is best used at slow trolling speeds, typically between 0.8 to 1.6 mph.
- Target Species: It is effective for a variety of species including rainbow trout, kokanee, and salmon.
- Compatibility: It works well when paired with other Mack's Lure products such as the Double Wammy, Wiggle Hoochie, and Cripplure
