Another interesting side note is the size of eels I am seeing in my pots... I'm seeing an unusual amount of 6" and smaller mixed in with the larger bait and meat eels... I rail dumped one pot last night because it would have been too much trouble to sort them... it's a promising sign.

also last 2 nights we have pogies in the Merrimack...something we have not seen in numbers in decades.
I need to find that post you did years ago on how to catch your own eels.... Then figure out what an eel pot looks like and where to find....
