Konger

#1 Post by green »

Is there such a thing as a fool proof conger trace? It was hard to comprehend some of the results that came from Plymouth last weekend. Some of them made the Home intl team look like BARCELONA.

Can't beat a bait pirk to be honest. Bob it off the bottom with a mackerel flapper. They are also very handy when you get them to the side of the boat for unhooking!
