yeah, congers to around that size turn up from time to time on cushendun, not often though, mostly normally very small straps but i heard a few years ago of a guy who actually went there to target them from the beach.... :?

well what you could do hairy is fish a 2 hook Pennel Rig and just bait up the top hook with lug for the whiting and cod are coming in you get a small whiting on the small hook and just leave it out there till a big cod comes in to eat it the chances are that he will take the big hook at the same time i have seen this done before and with a small whiting on a conger could come to eat it to

There is a small wooden wreck just of the beach. This were your conger probably came from. You can sometimes see it on a very low tide. There is a big steel boiler situated very close to it aswell.
