flinging eels from shore ... with an egg singer

[ThrowingTimber]

Ben, we pour sinkers that are roughly the diameter of yellow #2 pencils, bout' half an inch to an inch long, with a brass ring on one end. We stuff it in the eels mouf and when we hook the eel, we make sure the hook passes through the center of the brass ring.

Rubber cores work really great at this, slim profile and they slide nicely so you can jam them down the throat. Fresh dead eels work best for this.

Try thru-wiring some Tail weights to if you can't pour them
