Red Gill Original Lures

Red Gill - The Original Sand Eel Lure - Often copied, but never bettered! The Red Gill Original lure, created by Alex Ingram in the 1950's, has been a staple in the world of recreational and commercial fishing. As a leading manufacturer based in the United Kingdom, Red Gill continuously strives to improve and perfect their high-quality lures. Anglers know that when it comes to catching fish, Red Gill is the ultimate choice for its unbeatable sand eel imitation.

Red Gill Original Lures have become popular among surf anglers for their effectiveness when paired with a preferred swimming plug on a teaser rig. The 4-1/2" Rascal has a proven track record of catching trophy fish while surf or boat fishing. The 7" Red Gill Raver is a preferred option for targeting Striped Bass and can also be used as a teaser. Typically fished in the Carolina style, resembling a live eel rig, it boasts a distinct tail movement that imitates an injured sand eel and is highly attractive to predatory species. These lures can be used from shore or boat with a longer leader to enhance their realistic movement and increase the likelihood of catching fish. They are renowned for their superior performance and durability compared to other artificial baits on the market.

The Red Gill is often used as a teaser ahead of a lure.  You may be surprised to find more fish hitting the teaser instead of the lure.  Due to its unique tail action the eel provides a life-like imitation of an injured sand eel making it irresistible to prey. This is the go to lure when sand eels are present.
