Probably too big of an eel - might be more trouble for a bass than its worth...

But as long as the world wasn't ending and Ernie wasn't around...

Last October I picked up a 20+# fish with a 34in eel in its stomach. When catching the fish I knew there was something big in there. That was mainly the reason for keeping it to see the contents in the stomach. At first thought my guess would have been lobsters. Ive caught big fish there in the past with lobsters in their bellies but little did I know when I cut that stomach open that king sized eel came pouring out. Most amazing thing Ive seen in years. I still don't know how that fish managed to scarf that down his throat. Point being, if you think your eel is to big, think again, sling it out there you never know with the ocean its full of surprises.

Don't force it feel it.
