@DrKatfish @WildlifeBioGal @ericrsails @donaldorth @ReelAngle @SolomonRDavid @UWiscSeaGrant Historically the American Eel was only found in one Great Lake (Lake Ontario).
Connections via Welland Canal and stocking means that they have been found in all the Great Lakes.
From 1877-1891, over 2.2 million eels were stocked in Michigan.
