What's up with those accents?! That's coming from a Minnesotan.

The Coen brothers would not change a word.
That's nothing man, drive an hour or two south of there closer to Boston and you'll really hear some f--d up accents, I spent 20 years of my life there (unfortunately) and the accents there and around NJ and Long Island are some of the worst that I personally cannot stand hearing. that's saying alot, because as a young man I spent 4 yrs in the USN around all kinds of people from all walks of life. First time I heard a Bostonian I thought he had a speech impediment, then realized everybody up there talks like that....

I know what you mean. I had a guy from Mississippi that talked like swamp people the show, a guy from rural Texas, a guy from Alabama...and me with my Canadian mounty's accent. We didn't communicate very well.

Prime example of the dangers of commoditizing wildlife.

That just blows my mind how much those eels are being valued at. I wonder how much the buyers make.
The baby eels look pretty cool though. Never knew they looked like glass.

Interesting. I caught them all the time (by catch) growing up in eastern N.C.

Do you raise the baby eel as a crop or use them immediately?

Right? How many times did you reel up too far and have one put the death grip on your fishing pole? Nasty, slimy bastages

Guy in the video said they were shipped to Asia and grown to adult size before consuming.
