Big eels for an eel fisherman and big eels for a plug guy are two separate things. If you want an skin to go over an Atom 40 or large Danny you are going to have to trap it yourself, or maybe get some from a fish market.
Skinning them alive is stupid and unneccesary, which is why Flap advocates it. Better to just throw them in a bucket with some dry Kosher salt........kills them and gets the slime off in about 15".
