20 years ago, every Tom Dick and Harry had a copy of the old Nelson forulas, very widely circulated at the time. I had a set of them? Past Tense tho!

Anybody left out there still have a set? PM me please!

Fellow sent me a couple, for some dead frozen eels, which I guess was one of the ingredients....it was a copy of a copy of a copy that was hand written, lol..
Couldn't read it, well parts of it. I may have them somewhere, but probably tossed them...seemed like a lot of trouble when I can order some of Paul's or Bob's magic elixers. grin

Always wondered what those eels were like when they got to him!, lol

Bill Nelson might have sold more recipes than he did bait!

My Grandfather preferred eels to make fish out, the one formula I remember reading had trout oil not eel oil

Pretty sure the good ones utilized seal oil, not eel oil.......serious. And that is rather hard to come by these days......unless you are native or have some relatives etc.......
