X2 I got caught on it, but haven't caught a single fish on it

They work very well in the private phosphate pits in Florida for Bill Dance. He is a good salesman.

JUNK.....but I did pick one up and my buddy did as well.  He actually caught a fish on his.  Don't buy it

They work for me.

I bought two of them. I watched Billy and Bobby Murray catch fish after fish with the dancin eel. I got the one each of them was using as they used different colors. 

I have never caught a fish on this lure. In all fairness, I do not throw it hardly at all.

they look good in the water, but when you reel them they twist, and run upside down. don't waste your money.

Fish them slow with patience, I have caught some big bass on them.

i have one,it has isssues running true..

looks like a fish killer when its moving thru the water but i havent caught anything on it(to be fair ive only fished it maybe 1 hour in total)

I rate it right up there with the Banjo Minnow.

Never caught a fish on it and I was glad when it became buried in a brush pile.

Never caught one either, though taking it out of the package first might help.

I use them to imitate tadpoles and they have worked well for me in a few small ponds I hit regularly.

I'm also in the majority...haven't caught a thing on mine.  Although I gotta say, mine runs true, and looks awesome in the water.  It should catch fish...

Now that I think about it, I might have caught a fish on one of these practicing for regionals on the Pasquotank river a few years ago.  Can't really remember, but I know I was throwing this lure (we were desperate).

This is a soft plastic lure and needs to be fished that way. The action is similar to the Eeliminator which is also a lure that is difficult to make run true but is worth the effort. I guess it is just a lure that people love to hate, but I have done well with it over the years.

I still have two of the original Dancin Eels. I don't think I've ever got anything on them.

They didn't work in 1983 and still don't.  I put mine next to the helicopter lures by Roland Martin. YUM = You Underestimate Marketing

I have caught fish on them.  Stay with the larger lure variety instead of the baby dancin eel.  The hooks tend to get caught in my line a little too often for my taste.

only seem to work in nieghborhood lakes that dont get any pressure
