Typically avoid it if its clear. I had some big nights last fall under the full. Yellow, white, or clear for artificials. Sometimes tie direct with low diameter line. When I used mono, it was usually 14# trilene xl.
Another thing to note is when I fished from the boat a lot I would score well just out of the surf guys casting range. When surf fishing now, I will try to employ tactics to gain more distance. If eel fishing, I will try deep spots with the wind at my back. Also, cutting the last 4" off the tail of an eel and fishing with a cigar butt will net you considerable distance, which is sometimes all that's needed. If all else fails, simply go home.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Also if you can fish the shadow lines the dunes cast sometimes they produce well.

full moon for me is all about the eel. Plugs never work for me unless I am lucky enough find an 'event' going on where the bass are on the feed. A lone bass in the moon on a plug.... forget about it, unless there is a lot of surf or current to make the bass act as soon as it sees it.
