Default Re: cost of eels

Last year, before we sold our boat, I would stop at Victor's Fish Market on my
way down. They're on Adams Street in Newark.

I remember $4.99 /lb and maybe 8 or more per lb.
We'd ask for 10 bucks worth and my brother & I would get plenty.
Surely the prices have gone up in a year, like everything else.
They don't open till 0700 though, so I used to schedule my trips accordingly.
We kept a homemade eel pen at the boat for any survivors.

Have only fished for stripers twice this year on a friend's boat, and shopped a local B & T shop.
We paid $ 2.25 an eel.

Tight lines all.
