The E-Z Body sand eel is one of the best imitations of the sandeel you could want. Although it's similar in profile to a surf candy, it is much lighter and softer as it's hollow making it ideal for shallow beaches and swinging or drifting in current. If you fish for striped bass, european bass, sea trout or any other gamefish where sandeels are present you want these in your box.
