New Moon's of July August and September. West tides after dark, last three hours. A spinning rod with 30 pound braid and don't forget the ball bearing swivel. 40 pound fluoro leader at least 24 inches long, 5/0 hook of your choice. At low slack walk the dog with a semi dead eel, bring up slow and reel up the slack even slower. Do the 1000-1, 1000-2 count to ten after casting the eel. On running water let the eel drift with the tide for a while by maintaining the distance from shore. You do this by after the cast hits the water and the tension of the eel comes to your finger ( bail is open) let the line go for a few seconds until you feel the eel again and repeat several times. As the eel starts to swing in to close reel up fast, cast and repeat. Have fun.
