Eels ... Eeek!
I have heard that Opeechee Pond is listed in the Guinness World Book of Records, where it has been called Eel Pond. Evidently, the largest eel caught in fresh water was caught in Opeechee. That is why you often see so MANY turkey buzzards swirling around both the Pond and near the dam in Lakeport where Winni/Paugus Bay water flows into Opeechee. The buzzards are hunting the eels for dinner. Yikes.
