I caught this Freshwater eel weighing .98kg at newtownards canal/estuary whilst mullet fishing ,I saw it nosing around in the channel in front of me so feed some maggots just upstream then changed my mullet rig around a bit to work the magots on the hook down to the patch of weed were he was lurking ,it went like stink on the light gear and made a hell of a mess of the line and landing net/weigh bag/arms/hands with slime :lol:
