I know the in and out of eels . we buy by the lb at up to 6.00 per lb and if you want all big eels which weigh 4oz = that costs the shops $1.50 per eel and they only sell mixed for 1.00-1.25ea and if the guy wants a discount well thats not possible if they are hand picking. the shop in your area wont be around long.
The best way to get larger eels from a shop is to get a rapport with 1 shop and they will work with you.They wont mind to breakeven on one area if your buying other stuff from them.
always best to catch your owne. The best bait is horse shoe crabs.Mass has a limit of I think 10 crabs with out permit. and best place to set the traps is in Brackish water streems
