Bliz - when I was younger I used to sail and occasionally race little sail boats, Lasers, Larks, 470s for those that know what they are. I was once told by one of the best racers that if I wasn't capsizing the boat from time to time, I wasn't on the razors edge and I wasn't trying hard enough. Same thing with eeling in the rocks and the same thing I imagine from fishing the Ditrch "If you're not losing jigs, you're not fishing it right...."

Eeling is the same way - you want that eel in the rocks so when that bass sees it come around the corner of that rock WHAMMM it inhales that eel. Getting occasionally caught is the price for being in those rocks, on the bottom where the big fish tend. You also need to be working the eel as a lure where you can impart control on it... You just shouldn't CHUNK an eel, at least a live one. Work the eel like a plug!
