Anyone know where I can get a Jumbo diver that will dive up to 70 ft?

The floating jet divers won't go that deep... at least none of the ones I'm familiar with. The LJ Jumbo is rated to 50'... but don't count on it. The other jumbo diver out there is the Nitro Diver ?? the Eagle Claw knock-off with the added scent chamber. Don't know how deep they go, but they look smaller than than LJ Jumbo... probably wouldn't reach 50' either.

What's the application? Trolling? Backtrolling? Anchored?

Perhaps an Old Salty Diver would work better for you? I have fished these down to 100'... and yes they do work wonders in most trolling applications.

IT really isnt for getting deep I just want a bigger diver in 30 ft of water to keep the size bait I use down

How about the Mr. Salt Stainless steel diver, I heard they work real good getting down deep.

Stick with the LJ Jumbo Jet and shorten up the dropper if you want to be dredging bottom.

If you're only going 30', the other alternative is to use a cannonball lead on a dropper.

Downsize your baits. Not like you're gonna catch a big fish....

More or less I want to start a new trend on oversize sturgeon fishing. I want to run monster jet divers with a shad hanging off the back of them and slowly back them down the river. I want to see the take down of a 12 foot sturgeon!!!!!!!!!!!!!
