New MA Eel Regs?

Thanks. Sounds like the shops won't be able to sell crap shoe strings anymore.

This change went into effect across all of the New England states, perhaps beyond as well.

ASMFC has put the following out for comment in their draft amemdment which was just released:
"The recreational fishery is managed under a 25 recreational fish per day creel limit (with an exception for party/charter boats) and 9 inch minimum size."

Not sure if this will affect possession limits for those not in the party/charter industry or impact bait shops. But that is why they have a comment period.
