Wobblehead Eel Tube on the rocks ,SCORES!
It was a dark ,foggy night with too big waves......just the way we like it .  I put the 3 oz. Eel just on the edge of the suds near a rock and Bang! That's the great thing about these lures ,they catch trolling and casting. |

No worm just a steady retrieve like fishing a live eel.
1 Doz Raw...it was rough water so that helps suspend the tube ,but basically just keep it coming with a little rod action to make it dip now and then. If you're getting hung up in shallow water maybe try the lighter 1 1/2 oz. Wobblehead Eel tube. |

Nice Joe... but, I have a question. What kind of retrieve did you use (do you recommend) when you use them in the rocks. I have tried and I have gotten hung up. Perhaps I'm not retrieving fast enough... not sure. Any help from anyone always appreciated. Meanwhile... nice fish.

Nice catch. I had confidence in my wobblehead when i bought it. Then standing on a jetty on the block while taking it out of my plug bag i dropped it. Before i even clipped it on.

Everything is better on the rocks.

I absolutley love the wobble action on the Wobble Head. That thing is soooooooo sexy. I have not scored Large on it yet, but have caught a bunch of smaller keepers. Great in an outflow as well.
