'i would have had all of em in a tank by now!"

why bother they are free, happy, and in his back yard - I know I'd want to do the same though

Awesome eels. I have seen these before and always wanted some. I hear they are masters of escape in aquariums

yes very well said, But if you attempt do catch them use a net because if you use line and tackle you'll have a eel ball at the end of your line, but what is better than not having to do water changes, tests and feed your fish when you have it naturally
