Another option is the eel bob.With this you use the back 8 inches of a dead eel and have a 1 oz. lead head on the front.You get the smell and feel of a real eel and can put it where you want in the water ,even on rough nights it will get down where you want it to be. http://tattoostackle.com/eelbob_dz.php
This is a good bit of literature on the eel bob on Tattoo's site , by DZ. These are pics of the eel bob and the Wobble Head swim plates or "tin squids" as they were called in the old days. You rig the second hook in the eel from the loop in the middle of the lure. This hook ,by the way, can point down.

Thumbs up E#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&

I use heavy leaders and my leaders are 12 feet long, I use fluro but not becasue the fsih cant see it, they could care less at night what leader material you are using, I use flouro simply for the abrasion resistance and the overall strength, For years I used ande 60lb mono and still do sometimes... makes no difference in how many fish I hook.


Mono to mono on the leader? Or are you braid to mono/flouro? And you fish conventional so do you advise same leader length for spin fishing ? Probably not with the large barrel to large snap.

Thanks again,
Mike
