Abstract
Since the 1980’s a decrease in American eel Anguilla rostrata catch rates has heightened concerns over the status of the population. The objectives of this study were to quantify the migrational timing and abundance of American eels at various locations along the spillways of the Lake Wateree Dam on the Wateree River and the Columbia Dam on the Broad River, evaluate factors that effect this distribution, and identify areas where American eel passage would be maximized.
