Eels like to eat earthworms, chicken livers, duck intestines and other baits.

1. Earthworms: Earthworms are the bait that eels like to eat. In fact, earthworms are also a veritable "universal bait", especially the big black earthworms are the most useful because the meat of black earthworms is thicker and more nutritious than red earthworms. It has a stronger fishy smell and is most suitable for fishing eels and other carnivorous fish.

2. Chicken liver: Chicken liver is the bait that eels like to eat. Chicken liver has a special fishy smell. This fishy smell spreads very quickly in the water and is super attractive to eels. When fishing, cut chicken livers into small strips for hooks. Of course, unshaped chicken livers can also be used.

3. Duck intestines: Duck intestines are the bait that eels like to eat. Not only can duck intestines be made into delicious dishes, but they are also an "artifact" in the hearts of fishermen. The reason is that duck intestines have a strong fishy smell. It is most suitable for fishing eels, catfish and other carnivorous fish. Chicken intestines can also be used if duck intestines are not available.

Life habits of eels

Eels like to drill holes in humus-rich silt during the day or burrow in stone gaps with water on banks. They rarely move during the day and come out of their burrows to look for food at night. It is nocturnal, and the oral skin folds can breathe, so it can breathe air directly. In winter and the dry season, they will dig burrows as deep as 1-2 meters underground, where several fish will live.

The gills are underdeveloped, and they rely on the inner wall of the mouth and throat as auxiliary organs for breathing. They can breathe air directly; they can also survive when the oxygen content in the water is very poor. After getting out of the water, as long as the skin is kept moist, the patient will not die within a few days.

The eel is a carnivorous fish that mostly goes out to feed at night. It can prey on various small animals, such as insects and their larvae, as well as frogs, tadpoles and small fish. Monopterus eels mostly feed by slurping. Whenever they feel a small animal near their mouth, they open their mouths and sip. It is an omnivorous fish that feeds on various small animals. It is greedy and feeds most vigorously in summer. In cold seasons, it can go without food for a long time without dying.
