they fish better than live eels in rough conditions or strong cross winds, when keeping in contact with a live eel is almost impossible
i think the biggest things are that they stay down better in many conditions and the control that you have over them, as zeno said. the control and finness are definately something that i need alot of work on.
it often seams like smaller fish either choose not to hit them or aren't big/strong enough to suck them down and get hooked (i've caught 14" fish on 16" live eels, not so with big riggies), allowing bigger fish to be weeded out
sometimes, in a really fast bite, i've noticed that i can catch more fish than the guy next to me with live eels simply because i can get fish in, off, released and be casting again quicker than they can. On a few occasions, this lead to weeding out the bigger fish.
