Sorry this is a really bloody stupid question
I've always hooked Lobs throught the saddle, not a problem when fishing for tench, Bream etc as they've not been in the water for more than 90minutes or so.
but If I'm after eels they tend to stop in the water longer 4/5hours plus. is it a case that i need to be changing my bait more frequently or change my hooking position (i.e. not the sadle)...
