I paid 1.50 this time in Maine, it went up a quarter. They said that their dealer said he could sell all his eels to a bait dealer from Mass who would pick them up from him for 30% more than he was selling them delivered. I think I'm gonna have to rig the ones in my freezer for next time.

My supplier was out of eels Sat. night. Thats in Old Saybrook Ct. I thought he was joking when I walked in sat nite . To hear no bait took me by surprise. I guess it could be a permanent problem. Right now he said he would have more by Monday. " Save the dead ones"
I paid $1.25 at the bait shop just east of the Sagamore bridge...forget the name.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
