Quick take
A small silver self-planing diving plug that reaches depth as trolling speed increases.
A silver Dipsy Diver in size #1 that dives deeper the faster it is pulled. Shifting its base plate sets it to track to port or starboard, which helps anglers spreading several lines behind one boat, from first-timers to seasoned walleye and bass anglers. Its trip mechanism adjusts to the lure size and the size of the fish being targeted.

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.
