I know how effective eels are at night for stripers, but how are they during the day? Or would it be just as good trolling Tubes?

my dad caught a 28lb fish on my boat drifting eels durring the day a week or so ago through a fast moving rip.

i haven't even trolled a tube n worm yet this year, but i bet it would work too.

ya just gotta find the fish.

They work. Boat loads of big fish to prove they do.

You will catch during the day, but you better bring a metric ton. Bluefish can here a live eel during the day in the water 200 miles away...
