Species Overview
欧洲鳗鲡
The European eel undertakes one of nature's most remarkable migrations, traveling 5,000 km from European rivers to the Sargasso Sea to spawn and die. Despite centuries of study, its breeding grounds were only recently confirmed.
Northern Snakehead
The northern snakehead is an aggressive freshwater predator native to East Asia. It can breathe air and survive out of water for several days. Considered a destructive invasive species in North America, it provides exciting catch opportunities.
