not too heavy for eels at all. i usually use a 5' long 50# leader if using a 10' rod, and a 4' leader if using a 9'. If I could cast it, I'd use a 10' leader. I don't trust braid to mono knots so I'm sticking with the swivel.

i typically use 50# for plugging too, unless i'm using small plugs (like a 1 ounce bomber) or fishing early in the season - then I'll use 30 or 40.
