Eels have served me well out there, but most of my 30#+ have come on plugs (2 on eels and 12+ on plugs). Many plugs have worked for me. The Buzzard's bay side is where my eel success has come. The point by Sow & Pigs through the bass clubs is where plugs shine. Tattoo's danny worked really well for me along the rocky shoreline, while darters, long casting stubby needles, and pencil poppers at 1st & last light have been key at the point. Bring something "squid-like" as the Canalman pencil I took 6 30's on looked very much like a squid. I found working along the shoreline by the bass stands, as opposed to casting out to sea, payed off well also. I now keep it simple when I head out there and keep my selection limited to the following:
- 1 pencil popper like a Gibbs canal special or Canalman in white or yellow/white
- a dark and a light colored Habs 2 ounce needle
- a dark and a light colored Tattoo danny
- a dark and a light colored darter (Tattoo or Super Strike)
- a couple stubby needles like the Super Strike bullets
- maybe a Giant Pikie or an Atom 40
- maybe a bag of eels just in case
