That's a riot! I grew up summering on Paugus Bay and that was always the story I heard about Opechee, so much so that we were so grossed out by it, we would refuse to go water skiiing at our friends place on that lake!

Years later when my wife and I were house shopping we mentioned smaller lakes, to which my realtor replied "I'll show you any lake you'd like to see, but Opechee has a lot of eels - at least that what the locals say!"
