Thats rec law.

A unlimited finfish license is the proper license to eel with. Unlimited catch.

I am thinking about eeling in DE this year. Do you have any eel pot makers I can contact? I missed this years horseshoe crab harvest over here, what alternative bait are you MDer's using in your pots.
Thanks,
