Maco's but last year they were all pretty much junk.

Do up your own. I bought a dozen live eels last year from Mike at M&D's and he picked thru to get what I wanted. Took them home and skinned them all alive. Sounds gruesome but a skin seperated from a live eel is more translucent and stores and looks better on a plug. The crows got the bodies.

A hammer, a nearby tree, some nitril gloves, a razor blade and two sets of forceps with curve tips. Off in seconds.

You'll get over the squirming and get a much better product.

Why even try.........
