Kilmore Quay area conger?

[pajo]

Hi all,

Has anyone fished the Kilmore area for conger at anchor?

It seems like ideal conger territory with all the rough ground but I rarely see (or indeed hear of) any being caught or targeted..

Thanks,
Pajo

Thanks Dezzer it's unusual alright.

Jellybait I fish out of Kilmore a good bit myself usually with Dick Hayes. Yeah there seems to be a few more ling around the last couple of years alright.

Do you mean there's a good few ling or conger on the reefs?

Thanks,
Pajo

yes , ive asked DIck hayes about it befoore and he said there are plenty of conger on the reefs

Maybe if you anchored over one of the reefs it might work ?as were always drifting
