Maco's; like everyone else said. The only problem, it seems, is that some of the ones that you pass over this year - are the same ones our forefathers passed over in 1929.
I tried to grab a few last year, and it was a daunting task. I made my own from a few very large deads.

Maco's but last year they were all pretty much junk.
Do up your own. I bought a dozen live eels last year from Mike at M&D's and he picked thru to get what I wanted. Took them home and skinned them all alive. Sounds gruesome but a skin seperated from a live eel is more translucent and stores and looks better on a plug. The crows got the bodies.
A hammer, a nearby tree, some nitril gloves, a razor blade and two sets of forceps with curve tips. Off in seconds.
You'll get over the squirming and get a much better product.
