The hook down keeps the eel on a natural plane and also keeps it belly down, important in my opinion. Yes I know many guys catch well the other way also, but for me its one of the little things I do that makes a difference. And no, I dont cast off eels more often or less than the next guy, I use and prefer slow action rods for eeling beacuse number 1, they take more of the force on the cast, and they tire a fish out much faster, I lay into my casts and dont baby it at all.
