If I understand correctly, those are Anguilla rostrata from the Delaware 
River, but other eels are good smoked, too.  Around here it's Anguilla 
dieffenbachii and Anguilla australis, in Japan Anguilla japonica, in 
Europe Anguilla anguilla, etc.   They are all very good eating.  Smoked 
eel is a real treat.
