I did suffer a lot from this a lot on the river i fish so added the same kind of post on here and was advised to use corn. Not been bothered since so probably worth a go.

Sorry, according to the "authorities" on the subject there are no eels. You must be imagining it ;)

Let's agree to respect each others views, no matter how wrong yours may be.

 

 

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity

If you don't want attention from the eels then stay away from the naturals worms, maggots etc.

 

But as Chevin pointed out at times eels will take almost anything you care to use, so its a case of trial and error.
