Moose-what size are you going to use?? I would bet that slow retrived eels in the 6-8in range would nail those Wachusetts lakers.  YEARS ago there was a french company that had a small jointed EEL lure about 21/2 = 3in lenght, that lure took many trout,Salmon(WINNI),and bass for myself and my father Tried to find that lure a few years back,with no luck. Any trout in the Mill Pond?
