SKINNING EELS
I just skinned my first ever eels tonight. I did 5 total and I nailed them to a tree in my yard. made and incision on the neck with a razor blade and took two pairs of pliers and got their skins off. out of 5 I ended up with four perfect and one has a split in it. Besides a swimmer, I am going to use a Gibbs needlefish with them as well. I got the skins soaking in a heavily salted solution of kosher salt and water. my question is this: about how far down on the needlefish should I create my groove to secure them? Also, as far as lastability these skins should be able to withstand a week or so in the fridge in the salt water? I am planning on fishing them inside out, make sense? Thanks.
