From there, the hooks you use make a difference- short shanks will let your eel wiggle more than a long shank hook.
I agree with NIB.. a NJ rigged eel on a squid is a sexy beast... I was using one for a little while 2 seasons ago and named it the zombie before I forgot it in my plug bag  |
My rigging needle was given to me by Charlie Murat. You talk about MOJO!!!!! he actually gave me 2. A big one and a smaller one for small eels.
