I used to go to Montauk for Thanksgiving weekend many many years in a row. I would always rig lots of eels cause they are deadly that time of year. Several times I caught multiple fish on the rigged eel in November then put the things back into ziplock bags and froze them. i would take them out and star catching with them again in mid to late May the following year.
One blue and its over.
I find most bass spit the eel itself out after getting hooked (eel is hanging outside the mouth during the fight. Also I rig using 2 hooks and bass hooked with the tail hook are often foul hooked on the outside of the their jaw or under the chin , etc) so there is little damage ever by bass.
