I use 35 lb spectron on a BG6500CL or 6500CS Mag Elite for eeling. I like it. You got to have a good length of leader. It provides just a little shock absorber. You do fell every little twitch of the eel though but since you are not setting up fast when fishing live eels , that kind of distraction doesn't matter.

for rigged eels , braid is perfect since you want to nail anything you feel right away.
