Salt it overnight first (a handful of coarse or kosher salt in a pail of water) and smoke it whole.

I've had smoked eel before and I agree that it's great. Where did you get the eel Deval?
I usually smoke salmon, but I've done trout, oysters, halibut, and some bacon sides.
I'd like to try doing some cheese.
I have a Big Chief front load that I paid $120 CAD. I used to use a wood box with a hotplate and old oven racks and it worked fine. Make sure you pick the right kind of wood chips for the type of food you're smoking.
I won’t even get into the different brine recipes and how much smoke to use
