Description

A super versatile eel imitation that’s loaded with innovative features. The design is simple yet very clever and will ensure superb results when fishing for any predator that naturally targets eel or lamprey. Just fish it with a cast and retrieve with the odd twitch and pause, and you’ll be amazed. The long tail is attached by a corkscrew mount and makes the lure rock enticingly from side to side leaving a great eel-like tail trailing behind. When the tail is screwed in ‘tail down’ position the up force of the tail will push the head of the lure down, so it will run just under the surface at more or less the same depth all the way back. Turn the tail into ‘tail down’ position and it will force the head up, bringing the lure right to the surface, creating a super wake effect. Combine these two amazing actions with 3D scanned details that will fool even the wariest of predators and you have a winning combination.

Field Notes

This is an eel-imitating hard swimbait/hybrid lure designed for cast-and-retrieve presentations with occasional twitches and pauses. It can be fished just under the surface for a steady wake or with the tail orientation changed to make it ride higher and create more surface disturbance.

Pros

  • Versatile surface-to-subsurface presentation
  • Eel/lamprey profile can trigger big predator bites
  • Tail orientation changes the running behavior

Cons

  • Specialized bait that may require experimentation to dial in
  • Likely best for larger predator fish rather than general finesse use
