Eels-Endangered?

Hi all, I've been hearing more and more talk about a group pushing to get the North american eels placed on the endangered species watch list or some such action. Has anyone else been hearing the same or anything else on this issue. The bait -food sourse- for all the fish up here has been getting worse each year and with the huge summer rains we;ve been seeing i know that the eels along with everything else has been hard pressed to find enough food. you can see the malnutrition in the eels in the bait shops by all the sores on them from them trying to feed on each other after being captured. But there;s still loads of them up . Just not as many people trapping them as their used to be. It's real hard work and as you can tell fewer people want to work hard as it's easyier to collect unemployment than work LOL.
