No, we were fishing wreck Willy Nilly off the cut. had 2 large 1/2 eels on on long line, set down one side and 1 live on on the one set the other side. Anchored directly over the wreck and caught 3 more. Well the other 2 guys did my fishing luck yesterday was the same as Dougies relationship with her car.Quote:

irrigation ditches and the like tend to get smoked and sent north.
I find hot water best for cleaning off the slime.
It's just a smear of marmite in a 35mm film container with small holes/knife cuts.
No worries, given the 1/2 of the 2 eels were over 10lb each on their own, there was a large bitey thing down thing there. Glad I/m not a swimmerQuote:

Pour some full cream milk upstream from your Hinaki.
Not too much ... a pint or so is enough.
Works well for me.
Smoked eel is delicious :thumbsup:
Might have to put out my net this weekend....... got me hungry for some just by talking about it.
Cheers

I know the milk trick, but the marmite tomorrow is to show VC it does work . . . or get egg on my face.
Never heard the milk one, why don't they just follow it downstream?
A maori bloke that fished for eels here taught us that one also:thumbsup:Quote:
