Is it possible the eel accompanied the fish from the ocean?

Steve, you're an amazing angler.

Yes, definitley! That's why I wrote the last comment, in regards to the weather and the sign of ocean life.

And thank you for the kind words!

The eel has some fierce looking suckers...

FYI, Lampreys are not Eels, they are more closely related to sharks- cartilage body, no bones.

Duly noted, John. Thank you.

Since the first time I saw one, I've always considered them an eel due to the captains always "telling me". I know better now.

Awesome catch! You should send in the lamprey shot to the MD anglers log. They would love that.

If I remember correctly, the rationale for prohibiting fishing in the headwaters of the Severn from the Route 3 Bridge downstream for 2,400’ during February, March, and April is to protect yellow perch during their spawning run. Same restrictions applies to the headwaters of the Magothy from the base of Lake Waterford Dam downstream 3,300’.
