Anyone ever hook a seal? on an eel

[wdmso]

So I told my story about the seal and the bass the other night

Well last night same spot a good mix of fish again nothing huge but constant fish for the tide ..

then I get a bump line goes tight and line starts coming off nothing crazy thinking wow this is a bigger fish but no head shakes no surface splash felt no tail slap just a slow and steady pull a good amount of line so now I cup the spool 100% VS 275 65lb braid I stop it and its not taking line and I am not gaining then it moved off again and the braid cut .. Still thinking it was a seal and have fished this spot for years and never heard or seen it happen before now 3 times in 1 week odd I have had small seals follow my eel's but not at 3am thats the issues i find odd
