You have to use special techniques and ammunition when you spearfish for eels. This fish is a night predator and that's why it sits in holes in the daytime. You can see only its head hidden in clay, silt, sand, when the fish is frightened. In order to hit the eel you should hunt it with a tip with at least two teeth, otherwise it will flee. It is unreal to hold an eel in hands as it is covered with a layer of mucus.
