Recently most of the B&Ts in RI have been getting their eels from Canada, that's why the new Canadian rules are haviong an immediate effect. The guys I talked to last night say that there aren't many affordable domestic suppliers. The Canadians truck them down in tanker trucks, while the guys from MD truck them in totes and they say that the ones shipped in water arrive in better condition and last longer. None of this has anything to do with the ASMFC or any proposals they might come up concerning the eels.
