🎣 TEAM GERRY'S CATCH REPORT: PAUL'S ANGLESEY CONGER SESSION 🎣
Team Gerry’s member Paul headed up to Anglesey last night on the hunt for a double-figure Conger—and came incredibly close despite some brutal conditions! 🌊🌬️
With strong winds and a heavy tidal swell, it was a seriously tough shift. The rods were bouncing all over the place, making bite detection nearly impossible, and the rough swell unfortunately cost him a good-sized eel early on.
To tempt them out of the snags, Paul kept it strong and simple: a running ledger rig, a single 8/0 hook, and big mackerel baits. 🐟🔥
The persistence paid off! After landing a couple of smaller strap congers, Paul finally banked a cracking eel weighing in at 9lb 10oz—just shy of that magic double-figure mark.
Given the brutal weather, pulling out a solid fish like this is a massive result. Top angling, Paul! 💪🎣
