MAN vs EEL

[@ChadDidNothingWrong]

Taxtro What do you know about respect?

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

Honor is a human concept. So is dignity.

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

@@MrCmon113It's nonsense that you cannot respect and appreciate something and kill and eat it at the same time. Most hunting societies have a deep and intimate understanding of prey animals. To hunt an animal you must understand a lot about what it is and what it does, even to the point of personal identification. You must be able to put yourself in it's shoes, and get into that mindset. Especially if your own and your familys livelihood depends on it. Hunting societies are at the mercy of prey and the movements of nature to the point where identification borders on the Helsinki syndrome, you can see that in all the ancient hunting rituals, and in the way respect is payed and gratitude is shown to the animal and offerings are made back to nature. This is way beyond commercial harvesting or farming of animals and certainly way beyond what consumers experience. They do not show respect to a piece of meat wrapped in plastic down in the super market. The attachment is gone. That's callous. That's distanced. That is feeding with no sense of the larger picture. What you track, kill and eat you earned. Don't think it's easy or without risk. If we want to eat we should not be strangers to the kill or to the entropy of life.

[@lbcsteve]

Great video! Those things creep me out. When I reach in caves to catch lobster, I'm always worried that one of those is hiding just out of sight and waiting to take one of my fingers off. I didn't know they were good for eating, what's the best way to prepare it?

[@1Ty1100]

they taste alright but they are what researchers first used to get samples of ciguatera, eels have the highest ciguatera concentration of anything on the reef far above anything you would find in a fish. But then again, good bait too. Killer vid man! peace.

[@hoggishgreedly9558]

AMAZING footage man. does your spear tip swivel around? seems like he wouldve ripped himself off the prongs the way he was spinning

[@mopert11]

Barbs don't let him slip

[@bikeguyirl4443]

I believe it's barbed. Sometimes multi-prongs work better than single prong with eels. I once shot a eel through the neck and he ripped his own neck out to get free before I was able to recapture him. I took him home but, I'm always scared of being bit by these things. Although, they are my favorite prey.

[@gearbow]

I just hope he ate the eel at least. Myself , I would personally like to keep that eel on the reef for others to enjoy. But if this fits into sustainable fishing and he eats his catch, then nothing much more to say.
