Who would fish without eels?

OK, I'll call. Cinto's fish seems well established to have been on a plug. The one from NC was witnessed. Tony C I know. McReynold's...who knows...but probably not you. Coleman's has been published so many times by a guy who spent a lot of time teaching others what he knows that I doubt he is lying, so that leaves Iron Mike (and by association, Habs) and Stezko as the liars. Can't understand why Stetzko would make up a story that includes an eel (maybe he was fishing clams instead?). So one is left to conclude you are implying Iron Mike/Habs and either Tim Coleman/Stetzko are lying to hide some secret technique they used....as if fishing bait for large fish is worth lying about. Perhaps someone else is bluffing here to support a weak argument?
