I will secure the head hook with 2 sets of knots in front of and 2 sets behind the eye of the eel and use waxed rigging floss. The waxed floss will not slip once cinched down. Is your tail hook secured through the eye of the hook? Again, I use waxed floss and sew a couple wraps on either side of the eel until it is solid. Can't wait for Bryan's write up to come out, looks like you beat me....
