Eel Rigging question.

[CSK]

Saltheart, I like your approach. Very streamlined. A couple of questions. Do you do anything else to secure the hooks, i.e. sewing them to the eel? Do you think a larger hook, say 7/0, 8/0 would provide more keel to help keep the eel tracking straight and not spinning? I realize the bigger the hook the better the chance of hanging up.

Thanks
