Everyone has there own way of putting sealice on, my way is not to peel put the hook through from front to back of lice pull up line a bit and put a second one on the hook. I sometimes put one on whole and peel the econd one and bind itto the shell of the one on the hook. The bottom line is if you get the pull you have done it right
The same goes for mussels some people put the whole thing on, some make a hole in the shell and put the hook through the hole. Personally I open two or three and wrap them around my hook then bind then tight to make a kind of blob bait. Same applies as above. GET THE BITE YOU DONE IT RIGHT
GOOD LUCK
