Report: when up to blackhead for a bit of conger bashin but we didn't count on lobster pots begin so closed to the head, but we fished on anyway...fish was very slow but plenty of runs on the conger gear...at low water i caught my boat rod getting good pulls which then it started to take line..struck into it and there was no weight what so ever...then i looked over the side of the ledge to find a doggie with lock jaw due to the fact it hads taken a whole herring and an 8/0 hook after that got a good run on the apollo struck into it then it went solid but there was a fish on cause i could feel somethin pulling at it...soon after that went home a bit disappointed but hey that fishin :(
