I think you need to adjust your glasses. What they have written all over them is "give zac a dozen."

The action sweet behind a 2 oz. jighead in a little current :smokin:

Those eelios look good Nebe

you got any mega eelios ? maybe longer and more slender.
I got a couple of rubbah's from canalman and it looks like you 2 guys are looking forward. I still like wood though :D

Nebe 03-01-2006 08:18 PM

come on canalman, post your eel :wave:

Slip, my goal was to perfect this eel and i have. This is the size i think is the most deadly- the length to weight ratio seems just right for someone using a 10 foot surfrod. From here, i want to do a smaller 'elver' and then a larger 'Conger', so yeah, thats where i am headed.

all will have the same features as the 8.5 ones... i will be able to cast them with 2 rigged hooks right in them and will also make them without hooks.

15" and 10 1/2" Ultimus
 
:jump:

From shore the 15" could prove difficult to work but i`m expecting big things at the right places at the right times

stripercrazy 03-01-2006 09:38 PM

wow
 
man those look killer:ss:

steelhead 03-01-2006 10:42 PM

Eben, I'll take a dozen of each :-)

NIB 03-01-2006 10:50 PM

Rigged with hooks right in the mold?? sounds like a great idea.U don't ruin the bait an glue it back together to fish it.U usin quality components??How bout a swivel on the front.

cheferson 03-02-2006 08:19 AM

Nice ,you got the pre-rigged down eben?

Nebe 03-02-2006 02:51 PM

Guys, i apreciate the requests for these, but my intentions of showing these eels off was simply to show them off and get some feedback. I am tickled that there is a demand for them, and hope to be able to make them available to the public, but for now, i dont feel comfortable soliciting orders for them until i can at least talk to johnR about sponsorship. My goal in developing these was to make a killer looking rubber eel to compete with the 9" Sluggo for my own use, but If there is a demand for them, i am happy to make for for those who want to use them. So for now, please keep the compliments coming, but keep in mind i wont be selling any here unless I talk to JohnR about sponsorship..

Im making these in black, smoked eel ( light smoke with glitter inside) electric eel (flourescent yellow with glitter) deadly nightshade (pearlescent black- the color spence calls metro :hihi:) ivory, and pearl white to start... might do some more fun colors later on, but for now just these colors to start.

agian, i am tickled at the responses here about these eels. I had no idea they would be so well recieved. :thanks:

EBEN

You are the M-A-N !

Nice work.

piemma 03-03-2006 08:39 AM

You guys had better get your orders in. Got mine in ....double digits.

While sipping a glass of very good merlot
 
Spence, BI Jeff, and I were discussing the high desirability of your new exotic customs and wondering when our case of Black would be ready?
From there we switched to a scrumtious chardonnay and tossed around our anticipation for the 10" version of your Horton Eels.

What say thee Nebe? :rollem:

spence 03-03-2006 10:40 PM

Indanite, that was a 1787 Chateau Lafite!!!

Eben - could you cast them with a 4 or 5 ounce head followed by the rubber and have the hooks imbeded? That would surely take the place of eel skin rigs nicely. They look awsome..:claps: :claps:

RIROCKHOUND 03-04-2006 09:05 AM

Mr. Sandman 03-09-2006 07:59 AM

:eek5: Wow!! I like the eyes. Nice. Lunker just lost the saltwater market.

I like the looks of them piled up too, it looks like you just dumped a bucket of eels out. Imagine how they would look trolled in an umbrella fashion:gf:

Well done! I hope to see YOU at the mass bass show.:bl:
