They are rigged in the line between the lure and downrigger release, diver or lead to provide attraction and impart erratic action to trailing lures such as plugs, spoons, flies or plastic squids.  \nTrolling with dodgers or flashers produces excellent results because you can cover a large amount of water in a very short time, thereby locating concentrations of fish with the least amount of time and effort expended. The flash and sound of these attractors draws fish from considerable distances, allowing you to cover a wider swath of water effectively with each pass... a big advantage when prospecting unknown waters or when fish are scattered.  \nSuccessful trolling requires a knowledge of fish and their habits, proper equipment, the ability to troll various depths and a willingness to experiment with different attractors, lures and color patterns.  \nTackle for trolling dodgers or flashers consists of a stout 7-to 9-ft. trolling rod, free-spool-type star drag reel filled with 20-to 30-lb. test premium Sufix® monofilament line and a downrigger, diver or selection of lead weights to get your offering down into fish territory.  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n| |\n| MONOFILAMENT KNOT |\n\nDODGERS vs. FLASHERS  \nThe big difference between dodgers and flashers is the way they run through the water when being trolled. A dodger has a side-to-side swaying action while aflasher develops full 360º rotations.This provides you with two completely different types of attractors, each giving off specific flash and vibration patterns.  \nFlashers and dodgers impart an erratic, darting action to trailing luresand producefish-attractingflashandsound.Plugs,spoons,fliesandsquids  \nall can be used with a dodger, which transfers a crippled baitfish action to these lures. Flies and squids are best used behind a Coyote or Abe & Al rotating flasher because they have no action of their own in the water and the flasher will give them a lifelike, erratic natural baitfish action.  \nFor dodgers, the correct fish-attracting speed and action is achieved when the attractor has a side-to-side swaying motion. With your boat moving “dead slow”, place a rigged dodger-and-lure setup in the water (see illustration) and slowly increase your speed until the dodger has developed the proper action. This is your optimum trolling speed.  \nOptimum rotating flasher speed, on the other hand, is obtained when the attractor is working in regular full 3600 rotations. With your boat in motion, place a rigged flasher-and-lure setup in the water (see illustration) and increase your speed until the flasher develops these regular, full revolutions. Note: Flashers generally work better at slightly faster speeds than dodgers.  \nDODGER RIGGING  \nThe dodger hookups illustrations show various ways to rig a dodger fortrolling. Note the recommended leader-to-lure lengths and leader from weight-to-dodger lengths carefully as too long a leader will negatively affect lure action. Also, too short a leader from lead, diver or downrigger release to the dodger will restrict the action of the dodger and inhibit its fish-attracting capabilities. These leader rules also apply to flashers.  \nDodgers can be used with a keel-type sinker, behind divers such asthe Pink Lady, Deep Six™ , Double Deep Six™ or Dipsy Diver® or behind a downrigger release, all of which are diagrammed above.  \nFLASHER RIGGING  \nThe flasher hookups illustrations shows two proven ways to rig aflasher for trolling. Remember that the correct fish-attracting speed fora rotating flasher occurs when it is being pulled through the water just fast enough to make complete 3600 regular rotations. This will result ina steady throb-throb-pause, throb-throb-pause action at your rod ti","cbCaivmstHkDiLfk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivmstHkDiLfk","pdf",288696,"English","# TECH REPORT #13\n## Introduction\n## Tackle and Equipment\n## Monofilament Knot\n## Dodgers vs. Flashers\n## Speed and Setup\n## Dodger Rigging\n## Flasher Rigging\n## Fish Preferences\n## COHO","[{\"question\":\"What are dodgers and flashers used for in trolling?\",\"answer\":\"They are fish attractors rigged between the lure and the release or lead to create flash and vibration, while adding erratic darting action to trailing lures.\"},{\"question\":\"How does trolling with dodgers or flashers improve results?\",\"answer\":\"It lets you cover a large amount of water quickly, helping locate fish concentrations with less time and effort.
