Conger on a lure

[phill_itofish]

Heading over to the mull (3weeks Friday) and I'm going to take my boat rod, as ive seen lads catch conger where i fish using a boat rod and mackerel baits, bit would they take a lure ?

Yeh they will take lures!!!! I catch them on 10oz jig heads with a big red and
black soft lure ..i find black and red work best.for conger but thats just mine opinion
no.dought people will dissagree with me
