notaro, its a berkley power eel, a 5/0 gamakaksu live bait hook on the tail, and a jighead with a swimplate on it.. the internal rigging is 50 lb dacron doubled up on itsself and tied to the tail hook twice (in case clammers friends show up) the dacron is tied off along the shank of the jighead, which has teeth to grab the soft plastic, but in this case its perfect for tyeing off the dacron... I also cut about a 1/4 inch off the eels snout so it would fit over the jighead better.

I had some great success with real rigged eels last night so I am on a rigging kick..
