eel skin substitute

[ProfessorM]

Here are a few. I dug them out of the cellar dust and all. I do not use them that often any more, I prefer the eelskin rig, but a buddy of mine who showed me this set up has caught many 40 lbers in the canal with them. Fished the same as bucktail, on the bottom. The sluggo is simply superglued on to the jig. You cut the front of the sluggo flat and hollow out the middle with an exacto knife and shove the sluggo on with the glue. It holds just fine, the ones in the photo are probably 8 to 10 years old and are still attached. Of course bluefish make mincemeat out of them but they hold up well. Hope this helps. P.M.
