I read in a previous post that I should fling the eel out and begin a slooooooooow retrieve. If I use this method on the party boat I go on, I don't quite know if it would work... for the following reasons:
1) The boat is drifting in a pretty fast tide.
2) If I cast my eel out, I will have a hard time holding bottom cause the tide will push on the line/eel and raise the eel off the bottom. (The boat uses 5-6 oz sinker with a fishfinder rig)
3) When I retrieve sloooooooooowly against the tide, the other people would be drifting their eels along with the tide and I will cause tangles.
So, how should I apply this eeling technique?
