Whilst searching through some fishing websites i came across the following quote on http://www.predator-fishing.co.uk/articles/eelfish2.htm:
'You are very unlikely to see an eel swimming in a water, and in over 15 yrs of eel fishing I have only seen two eels swimming naturally in a lake, so don't think that by climbing a tree to look for basking eels you will see anything'
Have I just been in the right place at the right time because I have seen numerous eels swimming in the water and I haven't been looking for them? Just wondering what other peoples experience of this subject is?
