A sampling was made by a kind of trap nets and an electric fishing apparatus in the lagoons of Arcachon Bay, France. Length frequency distribution obtained by two gears were combined to propose more reliable length composition of the population. The biomass was estimated by the capture and recapture method in a limited area with electric fishing apparatus, and it was redressed based on the corrected length composition. It showed approximately 638 kg/ha in the deeper parts of the lagoons. It suggests that the lagoons of Arcachon Bay contain relatively high density of eels.
