Need to try them out and see what you like...............

You can fish eels with 15, but 20 would be a little better, you fish eels like a plug, you don't anchor them out there and wait for a bite.................

In a lot of cases you drift eels out in the current, that's one of the reasons why I like fishing a conventional. A baitrunner should work well for that on a very light setting. I believe there are a few quite skilled eel fishers in the group that use baitrunners for just that.
