i use chicken scraps like skin, neck, bones, place them in an onion bag, allow to dry in the sun, hang bag from middle of pot, leave in two to three nights for best results.
ive also used salmon skin and belly fat with great results, same techinque.
my dad uses stale bread, works just as well. and no smell.
i average 8 eels every time i set the trap. i set two traps in two different spots, once or twice a week, have a large tank set up in the basement.
try different spots too.
my best spots are drainage tubes that go under streets with saltwater flowing into them, slow brackish water is where i do best.
