PETE, THANK YOU.

i am sold on the 1-5 conventional.

i hear that fast action rods are not so great for eels... is that primarily due to hook tearing bottom chin, since i am going to rig them hook down. or is it that fast rods and heavy payloads like eels and chunks are not a perfect (but good enough???) performance match?

since i am a braid guy...would using a long but 20-30# shocker leader with a few spool wraps provide some forgiving springiness.

thank you
