A rubber is only good for one fish lmao, I can't believe I just typed that.

You can get two skins out of one eel. I did a northbar bottle and a SS popper using one eel. The nb I just tapered the open skin with scissors.

On a side note, it seems we always tend to think of the most novel plugs to have as skin plugs but those often require a very large eel. Point being, just use a smaller (thinner) plug.

Has anyone ever used /tried a lamprey? Could contact your states DEP to find out when they remove lampreys from fish ladders. USGS usually collects, documents and discards them during spring.
