I just got A Tatoo's everlasting eel at the SWE show. Has anyone used this?It would be nice to use an eel that doesnt get shredded by blues every ten minutes.

Great plug. The green w/yellow belly is a winner.

THanks Flaptail. I got the 1.5 oz. - black with purple, since my black Sluggos always get whacked at night.
It's a floater with a tin lip so I was wondering what conditios it is
best suited for?

i've had most of my success with them on calm nights.

the light green/silver/white has saved a few calm full moon nights when nothing else will work

The small ones don't cast all that well so I'd think calmer would be better...very nice action though.

I got a olive over yellow one a while back and I actually was just test swimming it yesterday, that is until the impromptu blizzard struck. It swims really nice, looks like an eel, and actually it casts better then I thought a 1.5 oz. jointed plug would. Seems like it will work well in fairly calm water and I'm sure it will catch fish!

Great lures to troll off the back of a kayak ;)

I never fished from a kayak but I just got a used one and planned to try it out this spring. It doent have a rod holder yet or a spray fly. Should be fun though.
