I like the whole set up except the hook size. I would recommend 7/0 or even 8/0 94150. I think the Lami 120 1L is perfect for eeling normal shore waters. in a current like the breachways or a river you need the 1M.

I think on a spinner you want some whiplash or powerpro braid.

I don't think your success ratio has anything to do with your reel. It should improve with bigger hooks. Also , despite the slow retrieve (very slow) which can lull your senses , you have to be very , very aware and on the edge to do eels well.
