| needles 15/12/07 Evening anglers , well with the first trip out for ages that wasnt cancelled , we headed off aboard shogun to the needles , a lovely big spacious cat , cod was the main target but with easterly winds is wasnt looking too good , also the wind whipped up to a force 6 making it a rough day for us ,but looking forward to it never the less . Started off with plenty of dogs all around , then the conger came on the feed so off with the squid and on with a mackeral flapper and hit into my first ever conger of just over 30 lbs , great fighting fish ............  great stuff , tried tried and tried some more to bag another one but it wasnt to be , a couple of small spotted rays were caught heres one chris caught ......................  then the whiting came on the feed and scotty bagged up on some big buggers , but me stuck with the conger as i enjoyed the fight so much !! being such a rough day and with me usually being sea sick , i was looking a bit green on the way out , but it soon passed unlike a few others he he well scotty was green all day , but held off groundbaiting right till the end , and alladec was none too clever too heres a pic of peter who groundbaited all day long ................  a great day out but unfortunately no cod was caught at all , but i was well chuffed with my first conger !!! great boat and great skipper who also hit into a conger and let scotty fight it in cheers rob !!!! lee. __________________ If Everyday things are getting you down & stressing you out, Think like a Dog, If it cant be Eaten or Humped, Piss on it and walk away..     |

| Re: needles 15/12/07 Cracking conger lil brov, well done.....see groundbaiting at sea fishing works too  Maybe you should feed Allan and Scotty some fishy dish before you go out again next time __________________ There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind." - Washington Irving |

| Re: needles 15/12/07 Well done Lee, I'll bet it was good to be out at last even if it was a touch lumpy. Nice eel mate.  __________________ Right then, checklist: Rods. Check. Reels. Check. Speckled Hen. Check. Bait…… BAIT! Sh*t, where’s the bait? |
