The biggest difference is that with a downrigger you can set it at any depth and change it as you go to follow the contour of the bottom, which is ideal for mac fishing. Dipseys are good for fish that are suspending at the same depth. And as was said, make sure you have sturdy rod holders.
Dipseys have their place, but in Utah I prefer downriggers.
