Eels...Don't mess with 'em! *Warning Graphic content* - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I hope the DR. gave you some strong antibiotics. Eels have nasty bacteria in their mouths.

Damn Willy!! That's crazy.. I pulled a few eels Fri night.. luckily, there were not any keepers in the nets at the time- otherwise, I would have been tempted to pull the whole load into the yak- eel and all. I saw some nasty teeth on one... wouldn't want to come into contact with them!

Damn, that has GOT to have hurt! You are one lucky dude! Glad your OK - That's about an 8 on the pucker factor!

Ouch, glad it didn't turn out worse. I've pulled plenty of them, now I'll be even more scared. :-) That's a 6" hatch, my balls disappeared into my body with this one!

OOOOOOOuch!!!!! That is some gnarly chit right there. Hope all goes well on the recovery.

Can you eat em?

Well if something wants to take a bite out of me, what better way to stop it than with a BBQ in their honor?

Seriously, can you eat them?
