One eel trick that I've been doing alot more of lately is to try to keep the eels well iced down to keep them manageable as opposed to beating them senseless against a rock before hooking them. I'm still doing my own little informal study but I'm strongly leaning towards icing eels instead of stunning them. Being well iced down slows the eel's metabolism (at least that's what it acts like) down to a very manageable level where "stunning" against a rock would not be necessary. These eels also stay lively enough with a curl in their tail longer than by stunning them.

Teasers -n- eels? Maybe
