I'm thinking bluefish. It hit the eel and swam right at you, and since it didn't feel any tension, it ate its way right to the hook.
You get that little "rat-a-tat-tat" hit from a blue when it hits an eel on a taut line and them chomps down to end the resistance it feels. If you drop the rod on the hit and feed it enough line, you can hook the smallest bluefish out there when it hits an eel. If you get them in the corner of the jaw, you can land them. If they get their teeth on the leader, they're gone.
