you dont need a VS to catch fish. I have a 8 year old 560 that has a bunch of sentimental value packed with y-z hybrid 25lb test, 50# mono leader 6/0 Gama. hook....all I need. Funny you mention that though...have a buddy of mine,well an acquaintance lets say, that bought a ZB...this guy would be couldn't catch a fish if life depended on it, but he wants to "look" the part.. I dont need to look the part, my $150 560 has caught me just as many fish than if I was fishing a ZB and VS that go for $900+. Yes, I have to break her down once a week but how long does that take...15 minutes. Too me its no big deal.

I was joking about not having a VS. Can't tell if you were taking my comment seriously.

I have plenty for tonight, plus wood. Those were the little ones I felt bad for so I threw them into my retention pond full of big, hungry largemouths. They love em just as much as stripers do.

150 Qt. cooler used strictly for transporting, not storing. Storage tank is behind my porch. I only keep 2-3 dozen at a time since switching over to wood.
Sorry for the thread hijack...what was this about anyways?

I was joking about the pond your son was "stocking" with the eels. That would be the ultimate eel tank if you had a way to easily retrieve them.
I've been doing the opposite of you. I'm resorting to eels more than ever, although the fish still seem to like the wood and rubber better lately.

Got it, I'm brain dead so bear with me. Pond probably has hundreds of my old eels in it. If they ever go extinct you know where to find a few for cloning purposes.

Sauerkraut drowns his eels by fishing them where there are no fish, then throws them in the dumpster at his office. Now the church next door is sending him angry letters about the stench.
