What kind of eels are sold live in the tanks at Asian markets? Anyone know? Also are you able to buy a fish out of the tanks and take it home alive or do they kill it first?

If they are American eels id like to try something with them...no Im not going to make a crazy Japanese porno... :grinno:
 
not sure but i do like my new sig :ROFL:
 
Its my understanding that they are required by law to kill it first.

Sounds like you watch a lot of crazy stuff. lol
 
I'm not Asian but I do check out the many markets in this town and I think the eel that is sold here are caught locally.I purchased a live fish from one dealer once and it took a few minutes for him to understand that I wanted the fish alive and he was fine with it.It would be better if you brought along a bucket to transport the fish in.

Im about 900mi down stream from you and we have eels and Ive heard the same. I have yet to catch one though. I heard they are a PITA to clean because of how slimey they are.
 
asian markets in las vegas dont sell live eels. only catifish and tilapia
