DHUEY on STORM NATURALISTIC EEL

DHUEY on STORM NATURALISTIC EEL

My Decky Matt has been itching to try the STORM Naturalistic Eels before the closure, we caught a small Dhuey on the first drift and as he was removing the hook he noticed the remains of an eel (not uncommon) in its throat, asap he rigged up the Naturalistic Eel on a Gladiator 3oz Bomber, next drift he bearly hit the bottom before he had hooked up. 25min later ( on 6kg Braid in 60m ) he landed this nice 15.2kg Dhuey. His PB on plastic on our last jaunt for the season.
