    Re: "Eel market sizzles as prices hit $2k/lb in Maine"

    We have American eels here in Kansas, the state record is 4.5 lbs and has stood since 1987 which was also about the last time I caught one. The largest I caught was 2lbs. I wonder if they are still around, haven't heard of one being caught since early 90s and I fish a lot.

    Yeah, I might be able to arrange it ....... if you're serious. I know a buyer/transporter.

    Have a cousin who used to make a nice living trapping eel. Now, since the nuke plant on the Savannah River began operating the eel population has dropped to almost nothing.
    I'd rather be ready 6 months too early than one day too late.

    Reminds me of a friends father raising Chinchillas, they were worth a fortune until he got into the business. Then the market collapsed and he lost his tail.
