Homemade wood bait divers

Quite awhile back I got a homemade wooden diver from a buddy of mine who purchased them from a fella in Canyonville for .99 each. They are a simple design but very effective and at .99 each you can use them and not feel too badly when they hang up. I've since lost this man's number and tried making my own but they didn't quite work as well. Anybody ever buy any divers from a fella in Canyonville? Travis, you heard of this guy?

Are you are talking about the green balsa diver they use on the Rogue. I've bought them in a tackle shop in Shady Cove, but I don't know the name. I bought 1/2 dozen last time I was down there.

SJP,
Exactly. Do you remember the name of the shop you bought them? I'd like to see if I can order some.
Thanks,
Bill

WW,
I don't remember, but it was a shop in Shady Cove. If you call information, they should be able to steer you to a tackle shop there. The local area is real familiar with that diver so you shouldn't have any trouble getting some info. Good luck.
