I have talked to some very reliable people who tell me at the fastest it will be two years! I am not worried and I tend to trust the people I talk to, they are in the know! And good luck to the eel police trying to find a guy on some rock pile in the middle of the night slingin eels, I am not the least bit worried.
Also what I have heard from people at high levels in DEM and marine fisheries is that what most likely will happen is that there will be a limit you can have in possesion, instead of buying as many as you want it may be something like only 6 per day. at any rate eels wont be hard to find.
Lets wait and see, my eels pots are ready! but honestly, its not going to be a big deal
