I think it extends a lot further than you think. I know they use eels in ME, NH, DE, MD, VA & NC for stripers. as far as the other Atlantic coast states goes, they may not use them for stripers but they sure as hell use them for cobia fishing. I agree that it's unliekly that the fishery for bait eels is as big as the fishery for food eels, but I think it's a lot bigger than you do.
