How can I hook EELS without killing them

Search....and ye shall find! :tm:

i guss u missed the wack them thread ....lol

Hook it up from the bottom jaw and out an eyesocket, won't kill it.
Dead eels work just as well, just keep it moving.

:lurk:

Here we go again. :lurk: This is just like "Groundhog Day".

Sorry Guys :rude: :rude: :rude:

I use the #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& (patent pending) method of hooking down mouth and out the bottom. I keep them on ice to calm them but I DO NOT WHACK MY EEL. They seem to settle down after a while and perk right up right before a ($%(%& bluefish bites them in half....

Well the boy just want to know there's nothing wrong with that. Is this the purpose of a Striped-Bass Forum or am I in a wrong site.

YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE....

Many of us forget where we came from.....Our goal should be to give back more than we got.....

well said :claps:

:laughs: :faga: :laugha:

I hook 'em under the jaw and out either left or right eye socket depending on where Im located in relation to any current in the area. Hope this helps, also take a look in the how to section for the keep cool bucket that should help you out, best to handle the eels with either a dry rag, or a green scrubbing pad.

Its good to see a young man with some ambition and not glued to an xbox. :claps: Playing vidiot games

I'm curious as to the difference on the Eye Socket. Why does the current matter on this?

keep the eels COLD! it slows them down they will livin up once in the water or you can whack there tail that stunns them. you can hook them up through the eye or the "eel man" way

Yes indeed!

Thank you, you two...And yes I now how to keep them.... I use 3 bucket system

i am 17yrs old and and can say vidio (sorry i cant spell :laughs: ) games suck they are so boring to me you just sit there and press buttons. i can get enjoyment just sitting there just watching the sun set i was fly fishing and one person walked by and said "what are you staring at"(i was looking at the sun set on a dock in buttermilk bay) i said if you cant see why then you will never know

whack um whack um
 

hehe that was my absolute fav. thread...I laughed for hours over the preaching :lurk: :lurk:

yeah, i tried whacking my eel last night and it was hemeroraging. It spitted out its own blood or excrete blood. I have no ideas. Water and ice dont mix in the bucket. Just ice them down and sling when u get to your spot.

Use sands to wipe the slime off and handle it with a scrubbing scuzz pad (help me out on this) to hold ur eel.

hey, dont get the wrong idea. i was fishing last night and it was bleeding when i was hodling the eel after stunning it hard. can it spit our or bleed like that?

:laughs:

Dude, keep your sex life to yourself.

What color was the blood? :laughs:

eff u guys. i wasnt playing. :wall:

:hihi: :hihi: :hihi: :hihi: :hihi: That's the funniest thing I ever seen. I mean read about.
