Thanks Rockfish9

Thanks for your Sand Eel how to. I followed all the dimensions with the only change being the hooks. I did not have a Lefty 1 so I made one from posted dimensions. I've got ideas already of where, and when to break this one out. Thanks again,

Douglas

Nicely done.

I have been considering pulling the trigger on some glass eyes.

Man, you are quick. I too have 4 sandeels in the works from that great post of Rockfish9 but mine are just now finishing drying from the sealer. That was a great post and I cannot wait to try them out!

Thanks from me too, I have 4 in the works and here are two of them. Not sure i have the right weight, may be on the light side. I used a 32 cal roundball on each.
