About this product

Skerries eels were developed with one of South Devon's top bass fishermen and are named after the famous Skerries fishing banks off Dartmouth.

They're very realistic, with lifelike colour schemes and shimmer skins. Each pack holds three 6-inch, 25g sandeels in Rhubarb Custard, for bass and other predatory fish.

How to use

Fishing in two steps

1Start with a steady retrieve

Let the slim body swim naturally, then add pauses or lifts if fish follow without taking.

2Rinse and store straight

After a sea trip, rinse the lures in fresh water, then store them straight and away from heat so they keep their shape.

Exactly as described

Really pleased with this lure, didn't expect much but it's handy. I would happily use the lure again. Only tried it on one session so far.

Would buy again

Had a lure out on a quick evening session. First go was decent, no messing around, & it has gone straight in my fishing bag for next time. I still liked it.
