Quick take
A 3-1/4 inch chartreuse and white diving minnow lure designed for trolling kokanee and trout.
The Dipsy Diver is a 3 1/4-inch plastic trolling diver that takes a line down to about 35 feet and can be set to track to one side. Its adjustable trip mechanism lets it be set for the way you troll. It suits anglers trolling for trout, salmon, walleye and kokanee who want to reach deeper water without heavy weights. This one comes in chartreuse with a white bottom.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
