All Lamiglas and graphites - GSB1201M (10'), GSB1321M (11'), XRA1261MH (10'6"). The XRA1261MH might not handle smaller eels that great, but also substitues as a great jigging and big plug rod.

I'm not too fond of faster action rods and blanks for eeling, but if you like them - XRA1205 (10'), XRA1322 (11'), SSU1201MH (10'), SSu1321MH (11').

XRA 1205. I've built half a dozen of them as spinners for canal guys and they all love the blank. 120M is ok, but doesn't quite have the power of the XRA 1205. If you're worried about casting small eels, just add some lead(bullet sinker works good) above the eel or fish with the wind at your back.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
