Average Eel Prices...And Bucket Setup

[fishweewee]

Guys,

I guess it pays to shop around for live eels, if you're going to buy a bunch. How much are you paying locally?

-Going rate for eels at my local store is $1.75 - but I get to pick my own.

-Stratford B&T (CT) has 'em for $1.00.

-River's End Tackle in Old Saybrook (CT) has 'em for $0.75.

-King Cove Outfitters in Stonington (CT) has 'em for $1.25-$1.35.

-Weekapaug B&T (RI) has 'em for $1.25.

-Breachway B&T (RI) has 'em for $1.25.

-Zeek's Creek in Jamestown (RI) has 'em for $1.50.

-Edward's B&T in Middletown (RI) has 'em for $1.25.

I don't have a boat or live very close to the water so it's not easy for me to hunt my own.

* I found the eel bucket thread, thanks. * It's in the FAQ forum.

Thanks...
