Bizzarre Catch Tonight

Fished the incoming floating mac chunks on the bottom and caught the biggest freakin eel I've ever seen. The rod bent and peeled a little line like a schoolie. When I saw the thing I freaked a little and laughed. I took the weight off my 3 way and tossed him back in with the hook in its mouth and tried to live line him. The thing must have been 2 ft and my guess 3-5lbs but I could be way off on that. I fished him for an hour and nothing. Did I waste an hour trying to fish an eel that big? My first experience eel fishing. Anybody ever catch one in that fashion? I was going to take a pic but on my 5th cast with him the leader broke off.
