Species Profile
By Jeff Brust,
Research Scientist
American eels are an ecologically unique and important species that occur in fresh, brackish, and marine waters from the southern tip of Greenland to northeastern South America. This species is closely related to the European eel. Eels support a valuable commercial food fishery, are used widely as bait for sport fish such as striped bass and cobia and are an important food source for many fish and wildlife species.
