I've seen a couple. I think an eel is a harder meal for a bass to catch if you think about it. They are very quick and stay very close to the bottom structure and can easily hide. I think that has something to do with it anyway. Even a lobster can be easily caught by hand while walking along the rocks but an eel is like a NINJA

Back when flipping eels on the back was the way to go I used to get quite a few bass with eels in their bellies (and bluefish coughing them up too). Whether they were forage, cast offs, escapees or releases, who knows? But I have not seen one in a few years now.

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.
