The only shortage I saw was M+D's the day of the MSBA tourney.

However, the size has been very on and off... Somedays really tiny, somedays nice and meaty...

If eels go away........ *cry*

But even if I have to spend another $100 on some more nice plugs... it will be cheaper in the long run over a season...

Even if there is a moratorium, all the bait shops are going to do is start getting the eroupe eels , I have fished them before and they work exactly the same as the eels we have no so there will be no anytime soon.Ericksons in warwick will be stocking them as will quaker lane so sorry but the #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& will live

Cool
"Eel Supply?"

Sounds like the name of some soft rock band from the '80's.

Would they be considered non-native species and therefore not allowed? just curious.

Interesting link, notice they need to catch "Glass eels" to then raise to adult. Where do the migrating glass eels come from?
