There were big channel steel sections about 150x350 internal size, level with a swarming mass of elvers. I mean, the channels were all level to the top with 100mm long eels, there must have been thousands - a swarming mass of silver string. I expect they were waiting to get upriver...
    I used to live in Cambridge and my old neighbour had a NIWA contract to net elvers every morning at the base of the Karapiro Dam - first concrete stoppage on the Waikato River
    Every morning at daylight for about six months he headed off to the dam - when the wall was wet they could climb up quite a way - before they fell back down
    He stored them in a circulated tank for a few days then took them up river to each of the dams for release
    Pretty sure it was part of the contract that MRP had with Maori to restock all of the dams on the river
    He also spent time trying to net the female monsters in the dams before they migrated to the sea - poor buggars got chopped to pieces going through the turbines

    Was hunting up the Repia with my father...after breakfast he went downstream and I went upstream...mooching along quietly, I had that feeling that someone or something was watching me... I looked towards the stream and there was a monster eel with its head out of the water...it kept on following me...further on up I shot a yearling hind begging it not to fall in the water ...those big eels give me the complete willies!!!!

    Giant trout at Tuai as well. We met a family from there when we were camped on a farm catching deer. They had three trout, all mounted, all over the 20 pound mark.
