When using eels you definitelt want to use braid because of its sensitivity. You WILL hook up more and lose less fish with braid. If you ar worried about snagging use a 30 or 40 lb leader if using 50-65 pound braid.

For a Squidder, I would use 30# mono.

Be encouraging, not discouraging

And I'd fill it up with 65lb or heavier braid, your choice of brand as conventional are a lot less fussy than spinners.
