Hi Sean R

shore conger - I always thought it was 10 lbs or 4.54 kilos but you can check on the irish trophy fish site, the new site for the Irish Specimen Fish Committee.

A boat specimen is 40lbs and going from memory a shore conger is 25lbs but I'd have to double check that. I would doubt that its as low as 10lbs.

the irish specimen fish committee weights are the same for boat and shore
@ 40lbs. the irish federation of sea anglers have seperate weights for boat and shore. their shore weight for conger is 20lbs.
