An old timer I know taught me this trick for poisoning eels. Take a cig or two and empty the tobacco out into the bucket they're squirming in. A few minutes later they're totally stoned off the nicotine.
This way you knock em out but dont damage the meat wackin em' just grab one, sever the spine, and proceed to skin the rest. The chunks get breaded and cooked within a few mins and the links are so fresh they twitch on the frying pan for a minute or two.
This same cig technique should work on bloos. Put the tobacco on their head it'll absorb through the skin or just make a cigarette sleeptank with a few cigs into a 5gal bucket w/ water...
Drug the toothy bastages into submission
-edit on second thought the bloos will probably just float around if ya got em to stoned...but eventually they might wake up a little...LOL
