[jamiebrennan]

been a couple of conger caught in the last few years, one from Craster and one from Low Newton by the sea, not many people deliberatly target them round here so thats probs why they dont get mentioned often. Sure theres pics on nesa of them both if you do a search.

Yeah i know what you are saying but they are really quite passive in there inviroment if you dont spook them the are no problem they are nosey and stick their heads out but i never had one come out of their holes.

Think you have more chance of a jew given you a £50 note than catching one between Blyth and Seaham.

Head up Scotland, loads of straps up there....large mackerel biat one cast out and one down the side into any deep holes you can spot.
