Protail Swim Eel Offshore Tuna System Bundle (10pc)
The Protail Swim Eel System Bundle is built for offshore tuna anglers who need a simple, natural, and highly effective softbait system for fishing mid-water marks, deep-current zones, post-feed tuna, and sand eel feeds.
This bundle includes the Protail Swim Eel 4-Pack in Ghost and Olive, paired with Deep Thumper Jig Heads in 4oz and 6oz. Together, this system gives you a fast-sinking, true-tracking eel presentation that can be cast, dropped, slow-pitched, swung through current, or worked vertically through marked fish.
When tuna are feeding deep, scattered, or locked onto narrow forage like sand eels, halfbeaks, or small mackerel, the Swim Eel gives you a more subtle alternative to metal. The long tapered profile, tapered tail, and natural movement mimic real eel behavior, improving strike rates in open water and current-heavy areas.

Owen Clarkson –
Used this bundle during a deep-water offshore trip and saw consistent strikes. The eels moved naturally and stayed on track even in strong current. The 6oz jig head worked well for deeper runs.
Luke Murray –
Good for post-feed tuna action. The Ghost color stood out in the water column. A bit slow to sink initially, but once it dropped, it tracked smoothly.
Ava Gill –
Fished in a current-heavy zone and the eel system stayed in place without flipping. Tuna came in on the 4oz head when the fish were scattered. Highly recommended for offshore use.
