'''BOBBING FOR EELS'''. AKA and see "Bottle of Punch," "The Bowl of Punch," "The Butchers of Bristol," "Dairymaid" [6], "Fishing for Eels," "The Glens of Mayo," "The Humours of Milltown [2]," "Ioc an Reicneail," "Jackson's Bottle/Jug of Punch/Brandy," "The Jug of Punch [5]," "The Old Man's Jig," " Pay the Reckoning." Irish, Jig. A Major (Cole, Ryan): G Major (Miller). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Credited, impropbably, to one C. Knowlton in '''Ryan's Mammoth Collection''', though the tune can be found in older collections. Olive Sharkey, in her book '''Old Days Old Ways''' (O'Brien Press, 1985, pg. 170), talks about fishing in Ireland in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and explains:

<blockquote>
