OUR
BIGGEST EEL THIS YEAR!!
THE
8TH OF JUNE BROUGHT US OUR BIGGEST EEL
THIS YEAR. IT FELL TO ANDY FOWLER AND
WEIGHED A STAGGERING 84lb. IT WAS CAUGHT
USING CUTTLEFISH. IT WAS A GOOD DAY ALL
ROUND WITH A TOTAL OF 43 EELS, WITH A
TOTAL WEIGHT OF 1600lb, ALL OF THE FISH
WERE RETURNED TO SEA ALIVE TO FIGHT
ANOTHER DAYS SPORT.
THE WRECK WE WERE FISHING WAS ONE THAT I
HAVE ONLY JUST COME ACROSS, WHICH WAS AN
UNCHARTERED WRECK AND ONLY STANDS 6ft
HIGH.
THE FOLLOWING WEEK I FISHED A WRECK THAT I
HAD NOT FISHED FOR 2 YEARS AND HAD A
BIGGER CONGER!, BUT LOST IT ON THE
SURFACE. I HAD MY HAND AROUND THE TRACE,
READY TO GAFF IT, BUT, IT SPAT THE HOOK
OUT - JUST MY LUCK! THE EEL WAS AROUND
90-100lb, BUT I WILL BE GOING BACK FOR
HIM, THAT'S FOR SURE!
