One method of getting eels down deep if there are smaller fish and blues up above the bigger bass would be to place your eel and rig in a paper bag then when it is down near the bottom just give it a quick yank to release from the bag. But the bag ends up polluting the water, probably not for long but it could keep the choppers away from your bait.

David , I like to fish the Elizabeth islands also. Do you ever do any shore fishing?
