Want to give them a try for stripers off BI.....have never fished sand eels before....can anyone give me guidance as to technique, rigging, etc? Thanks.

2 or 3 ft of fluro leader with a wide gap kahl hook 5/0, octopus 2-4/0 and a 1 oz or 3 oz egg sinker. cast and retrieve or leave it out there. use large sand eels. the longer and a little fat, the better chance you catch. you might even attract the fluke of BI... i dont fish of BI, but I have used sand eels before. If you want to target fluke, use the red beads and place the egg sinker in between them on your running line.

:D

Place the hook through the head to its throat. If fishing for fluke, use a double hook set up (not hi-lo) gami octopus 5/0-7/0. i caught them on it.

Put two sand eels on each hook. Be on the bottom.

it is good for sandy bottom.
