Well done mate, nice session

cheers paula, i take it norman told you all about my waders filling with sea water when we were out mullet fishing yesterday so much for the gaffer tape quick fix

Great session - well done.

cheers frank

WOO!!! great fishing there al, nice one mate keep it up report + pic's great as usual

thanks don, that elf thing is brilliant speak to you later man

jesus al 40 fish in eight hours and two conger!that last one sounded like a hell of a fight well done!

cheers man. i had that rod set up for dogs,,,, it never dawned on me that a conger might fancy a go at the bait but what a scrap 10mins to free him up then a bit of soggy feet rock hopping to get him landed. priceless!!! i'll not forget that one too soon

Some report, and some fishing, you had the midas touch on that session alright Al, especially to land a conger on a spinning rod.
I'm sure I read another recent report of somebody doing the same.....it might be the start of a new angling trend
That last conger had certainly had it tough with all them scrapes.

cheers mark. i remember that report too. i don't know what i would have done if he had of been any bigger it was dodgey enough landing that one on my own on the rocks he must have been well wedged between the rocks before i got him up as you can see the scratches and scrapes he got for his troubles

as always great report and luvly pictures Al...very big well done

cheers zeke. i just hope inishowen will be as good today

Well done Al,Thats a cracking session some nice fish there and cracking congers well done
PS: That elf snowball fight is hilarious man
Paddy

cheers paddy. i nearly fell off the chair in front of the computer the first time that i saw it

Great session & pics, plenty of action!

thanks man. jordan has the video camera packed away to bring with us today on our trip. so our next report might have a wee vid too

Super session Al well done on the conger on the spinning gear

cheers conor. did you check out the elf vid yet it's class

Super session there Al. I bet Jordan wishes it was still the school hols!!

it's the same every year. he's no sooner back to school and the weather picks up and the fishing gets better besides, he reckons i only did so well cos he was'nt there if he had been there he would have got most of them sour grapes me thinks

well done on the fishies some battle scars on the conger in the 2nd pic

cheers seanie. makes me wonder what all the other ones who got wedged and won the tug of war must have looked like

nice one

cheers paul. you dave and lewis will have to get out with us again soon mate did dave get his shifts sorted yet?

why is everyone catching congers but me lol, fantastic sesh al

just gotta do a bit of travelling man to go to where they are at somehow i don't think you'll get too many of em in the millisle lagoon

nice session

cheers aidy. it was one of the best sessions that i've had in ages

Great session Al, nice eels man!

thanks fenton. have you got out much lately yourself man?

great session Al, well done on landing the conger on such light gear

thanks man, just as well he was'nt any bigger of he would have snapped the rod. it's a cert to happen soon enough as i always seem to be tempting fate by useing the lightest rods that i can get away with but at least you get a decent fight outta what you catch

Brilliant mate, couldnt have been better for ya. I'm jealous tough lol you catching all those fish and i cant catch anyhting.

Ur a jammy sod mate too much time on your hands, its not fair . Might be ok for Mon/ Tue. Well done, crackin report and pics as usual.

at the point rab. i must have looked like a hyperactive meerkat. trying to keep an eye on the swell to my left and the swell to my right think i've gave myself whiplash. sort of un-nerving place to fish on your own

thanks davy. when he was wedged in the rocks he felt like a double figure eel . thank god he was'nt as i think it might have been the end of the rod amazing fish thow,, just the sheer power they display with a simple flex of their muscles slippery wee fish too. must have taken 3 attempts to lift him to get him back in the sea

Al that was definitely a super session, worth the travel time and dodging the swells well pleased for ya man, now wer be my conger
