Nope, zipped up tighter than a drum.. I thought of that, and was stewing on this for a while... and debated putting this up here because of the slight possibility of that, however I have never had an eel escape from that... just people being an ass.... besides the two left had been fished, and cycled out for fresher ones, they werent too 'lively'..
It's tough to tell because a few other guys had put gear down near mine at least twice, and my guy instinct said one of them stopped near my stuff when he walked by... However I was quietly landing another fish... (no light stealth mode ) when the kept walking I shined my light to make sure my rod/eelbag was still there and kept fishing.....

Bryan,
Make sure the eels didn't find a hole between the liners of the bag. The outer liner occasionally rips. I thought I was missing a few eels the other night. I found them "by scent" a few days later.

Checked that too.. my old one had ripped, this one is fairly new....
I was pretty thorough before I posted this, wanted to be sure... hey I'll leave it open there was a slight possibility they got out, but my gut says they didnt...

I never had a person take my eels without permission. Now there was this fox (Not a babe , an actual fox) down in Chatham who couldn't be trusted!! Turn your back on him and his head was in the bucket.

If It's not attached to me, I don't bring it.

Sucks that that's the way things need to be, but, I keep everything, tackle,eels, etc on me at all times.
