You would think the one in the front would be good enough and less likely to snag. One hook works fine in the head of an eel. Not disagreeing, just curious on your reason for 2 hooks. Sell it too me...Eels are getting tooooo expensive. I am going to try Sluggo's next time out, if I can find some somewhere...
Just the reason you stated, its not a "live eel" its an artifcial, the rear hook helps out alot with those short hits, you will miss less fish, I guess its just more insurance you will hook your fish, they really hit them hard.

Go to the takle box on west shore road , he has plenty, buy the black color ones, as for the weights, I think the sluggo insert weights are much better than a nail becasue they have little ribs on them that bite into the sluggo and keep them in place, but, a nail will work in a pinch. Quaker lane has everything you need, sluggos, weights, dacron etc..

I will stop by your house tommorow and show you some I have rigged and give you some better tips, you going to be around most of the day?

I am telling you dave, I think ( and I hate to admit this) they work as well as a live eel at times.......

two things happen here--1) I am not good at explaining things on the computer

2) I always get in trouble!

I can show you the whole process in person!

I can't say enough good things about the Shimano Spheros.I've had the 8000 for two seasons without a hint of a problem.Best reel out there in its price range IMO.
