Another great session! Some nice fish and well done on the PB Conger, RESPECT! Looking out at the weather I don't know If I am wise going there today or not :shock: The monster conger sounds like a beast :o I would fear for your safety never mind Jordan's, don't let bravado get the better of you if you are there on your own again, no one to pull you out! Nice to see the variety of species, it really is fishing well :D

cheers fenton. the 2 days i've been there it's been dry,,, those rocks might be a bit dodgey when they're wet :shock: i think a length of rope round the reel tied to the rocks will be the way to go at the weekend. he can pull and haul until it tires it's self out :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: i also found out that puting the rod but between your legs for extra leverage is'nt the thing to do :shock: :shock: almost turns the rod into a see saw with the family jewels on the recieveing end of all the force :o :o :o :o until yesterday i could'nt sing soprano :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well done, great couple of sessions, looks like you have found a superb mark.
Shame about the conger - but definitely tie Jordan to the rocks sounds as if that conger would eat him for breakfast.

I did the same thing a few weeks ago at Orlock whilst trying to free the line, not once, but twice :oops: Not nice............ :(
Ended up at Ballyphilip today as everywhere else round the coast was crazy. Should make for some good fishing over the weekend at your mark as lots of fish grub stirred up :lol:
Unfortunately I can't get out over the weekend.......... :cry:
