I fish them most of the time. Never use any scent. Most of the time I catch just as many or more fish on riggies than I would with live eels. Only a few places where a live eel works better for me - deeper water spots. I've got some of my best fish on nasty rotting rigged eels. The scuffing of those eels, where it turns blue/white is key - I wouldnt be suprised if that releases an enzyme or scent that turns fish on. I've always felt that eel itself was enough scent, same with skin plugs.
