gloves for eels? any suggestions?

It has been a while since i used eels, and last night I spent just as much time dropping eels as I did tossing them. The sock i found in my car was no match for the slime. Then I had flashbacks of every trip with eels and what a pain in the butt they are to hold on to. I figure some you guys surely have a better way of grabbing them, than an old rag. Perhaps some type of glove? I have some work gloves with the rubber pads on them, i'm gonna give a shot this am, when i introduce the girlfriend to the wonderful world of rock hopping in the dark with eels. She's gonna have a blast lol.
