as a kid I would catch the little 2-3 inch eels in the local brook - one at a time.
we would also catch larger eels in the same brook (but closer to the mouth) these were in the 8-10 inch length.
we would try (but never succeed) at catching the grand-daddys that hung out around the town pier. these were 2-4 foot long snakes!
As the fish have gone so have the eels.
I will have to go tromping in the brook again and see if I can find the eels again.
