Got back from the hill too late to hit the river so baited line at creek and a few seconds later landed this.

Never weighed it released this one was a bit on the small side.

We have some monsters that size in the Maraetotara stream that used to scare the living daylight out of me too.

another trick ive used in the past is with wee ones.used to hunt willows for possums on a farm where we rented a house.in winter ponds would appear and little uns in em.used to sit on a stump and put a.22 rd in beside em-the aerial gymnastics of those eels was something else. in latter years once disposed of a troublesome brute on cousins farm with ye trusty old .303 round in the noggin as he fed on fresh sheeps guts.apparently cousins kids lost two cats to this bastard ,so his mrs decided it had to go.needless to say it was a very loud wet messy executionshredded eel does not make good camouflage ,nor does it smell that attractive.
must admit though theres some impressive specimens on this thread.
That eel in that vid will be on Channel 1 news tonight. I hope they don't show to many land marks or some bastard will kill it.
Old hemp rope with a knot in the end smeared with an egg will do the same. That is probably the modern equivalentQuote:
