| Eastern New Brunswick Area fishers have concerns about the exploratory elver fishery on the Miramichi River. |
| It will be built adjacent to a fish pass, with a separate eel and elver pass to aid the migration. |
| To date, the exploratory elver fishery on the Miramichi River has been largely unsuccessful. |
| This has nothing to do with the Sargasso Sea in which, despite all of the researches, no eel, elver, glass eel and not even a single egg was found. |
| The leptocephalus is planktivorous as it drifts to coastal waters and develops into an elver, which feeds on aquatic insects, small crustaceans, and dead fish. |
| Prohibit fishing for elver along the coast in order to prevent eels from disappearing from rivers and streams. |
