Since I can remember, eels have been the top "lure" to use for bass. I think the recent resurgance of wooden plugs has actually made plug fishing more popular, eels have always been tops.
To me, using a live eel is not using bait, I know it really is, but its a TON of concentration, feeling every movement of the eel and knowing when you get the hit. For some reason, on this site, eel fishing is regarded as "easy", I dont agree. To me, they are my best chance to catch good bass (to me, good is anything over 15 lbs - my goals are low).
As stated earlier, you need to do what you enjoy, period.
I love using needlefish, mambos and spooks. It all depends on moods, conditions and bait.
