There was a decent Sci Fi book by Steve Alten (writer of the Meg, turned into a movie by idiots) called 'The Loch' which describes the Loch Ness monster as an Anguilla Eel that was unable to complete its migratory spawning journey to the Sargasso Sea and grew to massive sizes.

Yes, you will find European Eels in British rivers, they migrate from there to the Sargasso Sea, though not all Eels found in those rivers will be the same species that does this.
