Even the new depth gadget will not bring your lure around the desired depth and this app will be the simplest way to set it up.
Dipsy Troller is an app to interactively get the length of trolling line initially for the Dipsy Troller de Luhr Jensen and some others divers from the same company.
As fishermen, we have all opened our fishing box to find that the user data of the divers have been soaked and is unreadable or that we can't find it. It happened to me and to my fishing buddy, so I decided to write this app. The truth is also that to find the right length considering all the factors: the size, the ring, the line, the plates... while driving the boat, putting lines to the water, trying to not hook ourselves, looking at the sonar, trying to get the thermocline depth, adding waypoint when seeing fishes, listening radio for other reports is difficult to say the least. 11 years ago, smartphones were only starting to be in all fishermen pocket but now it is clearly in all pockets.
Dipsies have a very simple data table, while the two values per cell, with or without the ring, make it clearly more difficult to read. But some of the other divers have larger and more complex data tables with tens of columns and rows and even many pages. Now that apps are omnipresent, it was the right time to do another version with more divers.
This app is wonderfully laid out. I love that you can assign positions to the many possible diving tools on the market. It has easy to use features. However there are some big flaws that have me questioning the validity of the data. Flaw #1. It has user preferences where you can select meters or feet. And even when you have your preferences set to feet some of the items display the return length in meters. This should be easily fixed in the programming or the app instead of me pulling out a calculator to convert. Flaw #2. The data is not interpolated or extrapolated to various speeds. It is instead using the luhrJensen 10% difference whether or not it is 2%, 10%, or 15%. Interpolation can also be easily programmed.I hope if you are considering this app that you buy it in hopes that it will continue to be perfected as it could potentially be an amazing tool. Once this app and my understanding come into harmony I will improve my rating.
Would be a great app if the could get it correct.

Lines lengths can not be shorter the Dept’s. Favorite feature doesn’t work.
This release solves a few small bugs: Dipsy Magnum not keeping its parameters, display in Davis Fish Seeker and minimum depth changed to 5 feet to access lower A1, and finally enlarge switch buttons for easier settings.
