I'm looking to add some long jointed snakes/eels to my plug bag. It's been my experience that many jointed plugs cast like socks. Can anyone reccomend some decent casting plugs in the 10", 2 oz. area. I've been eyeing the Mr. Wigglys and the new Hahns.

I was worried that at only 1.5 oz. the everlasting eel wouldn't cast very well.

Jointed plugs actualy cast better than straight metal lips.......don't ask me why, but they do.

Seem to cast just fine during light moderate and calm conditons,
but I like to see a 2oz version myself for heavier surf.

I got two - swam them in the local lake - haven't seen the salt yet but I liked the action!

I like the Hahns because it fit the gap between the Everlasting eel and the Murl Eel.
