Kynan, the trick with eels is not to let them have slack. After you hook them always keep them hanging and get them in the water quick. Once they are in the water stay in touch with them. If you are in a rip keep a little tension on them, if there isn't much current reel slowly to keep them from getting their tail around. We also store them on ice, that slows them down enough to hook up, but thye come back to life in a couple of casts.

Don't know much about boat fishing the south coast but down in the Chesapeake thye fish bucktails just fast enough to be able to steer the boat. You want to troll that Rapala about the same speed you would reel it in.
