hi sci, if its conger u want get down to bangor pier. ronald and davy regulary post reports of the pier and there is some big congers caught this year there. i'm sure once one of them logs on they will tell u more.

to fish bangor your best bet is to use a boat rod and reel and fish in the boulders on the back of the pier ,you could fish the steps beside were the trawlers tie up ,you dont get as many fish though . use ashort 12/18 " heavy mono trace tied to a 8/0 o'shanessy hook (bronzed) and a good swivel , either a mackerel head and guts or a side .dead simple ,make sure you leave the reel out of gear or the drag wound back or you risk loosing rod and reel !!
