hi andy

ive fished alot of different wrecks in the bay, mainly on the kish bank and beyond although there are a few inside the kish.
you would most definately pull up a few congers and all the other regular fish cod, coalfish, pollack and wrasse. you will pick up a few gurnard around the wrecks and some flats too.
you have a very good chance of some very big conger. i had a lovely 40 pounder a couple of years ago on one wreck on the kish bank and a couple of specimen wrasse (ballen).
there are a few lads out there that said there was no big conger on these wrecks but trust me there is, ive dived on some of these wrecks so ive seen with my own eyes and caught them :)

all you have to do is find them now :wink: :D
