Has anyone out there had any success using power eels? I've been switching back and forth between them and slug-go's and so far it's sluggo 6 power eels 0. :eyes:

Yes I have had success. I used Ron Z's, Sluggos, Power Eels, this season, all black and all caught fish. I didn't notice any one stand out more then the other as far as catching but did find Power Eels and Ron Z's to be more durable. I like Sluggos for the tandem hook rigging option but for lead heads it gets torn up quick. The best one, IMO, with durability (other then stick on eyes coming off), price to quanity, while fishing lead heads are the Power Eels.

eel's are good but there a pain


most of the time this happens to me..... ok so i get there, and i reach in and they keep flopin around and slipping. but when i finaly get it on andcast it out it last for 30 seconds and its dead:mad: :exp: :scream2: ....then when i do get one and i get it on the hook it curls and curls and curls and sometimes get the hook in its tail and when i get it undone it happens again or they die.......... i hate eels.... but there good bait.....

anyone got a soulution?!?!?!?!


o and what real p/o's me and this happened about 4 times
