yep....also, hard part is getting the hook out of its mouth.....you can't hold it...I always stepped on it.....even then it was not easy.....

Eels give me the creeps. If I ever caught one, I'd cut the line. When we pulled irrigation water off the Rio Grande in West Texas, they were in there sliding against your legs regular. Nasty creatures along with those big leeches that would latch on to you. You would have to slide a knife against the skin to get them off.
