What are you paying for eels?
They seem to be going up each week, just like fuel.

$1.75 in cc bay, $1.50 in SOCO

If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.

I paid 1.50 this time in Maine, it went up a quarter. They said that their dealer said he could sell all his eels to a bait dealer from Mass who would pick them up from him for 30% more than he was selling them delivered. I think I'm gonna have to rig the ones in my freezer for next time.

My supplier was out of eels Sat. night. Thats in Old Saybrook Ct. I thought he was joking when I walked in sat nite . To hear no bait took me by surprise. I guess it could be a permanent problem. Right now he said he would have more by Monday. " Save the dead ones"

Lots of the tackle shops I talk to every Sunday wanted to talk about eels last Sunday. Seems that the Canadian goverment has put limits on the amount and size of eels that can be exported. No eels smaller then 14 inches and fewer of them, so the prices are going up. Once the ASMFC acts on eels you can expect the prices to go even higher. Its a supply and demand thing. The supply is shrinking but the demand isn't. The days of the $1.50 eel are numbered.
