It will take some time and be prepared to carry an extra rod/reel in case you blow up, and you will blow up.
I tried it for a few seasons and now only pretty much use conventional for jigs and big plugs (or bait if I ever fished it). Eels are just too hard to cast (for me) and I only have so much time I to fish I don't want to waste it sitting on the rocks picking at my reel or fetching water for RIROCKHOUND
One of my favorite rigs is an All Star 1088, Calcutta 400TE and Spectron braid.
