Steve McKenna has turned Sluggo fishing into an art and he may be the exception but if you take a regular surf rat with Sluggos and another regular with live eels I don't believe the Sluggo guy is gonna win. Just my opinion

you may have a point when it comes to the surf, but for structure i have seen enough evidence to never buy eels again. most of the guys i know who fish the canal have many many sluggos in their bags and a few of them fish those sluggos to perfection. we saw some nice fish come through in the early part of october and pretty much all were taken on sluggos.
