'bring some cod and haddock back'....if you're going to catch one, try landing an 86lb Conger Eel, then you know you've been sea fishing

I must dig that video out and re live the moment once again as it's landed on the deck and we all scatter as it thrashes about .

Here he is. Again
My cats blacker than yours

Now now don't spit the dummy out, I'm merely saying that bringing home some cod/haddock isn't the be and end all of sea fishing.

It was a truly magical moment when I landed that monster and one I will never forget. My post isn't about being better/bigger than your catch just a play on my best experience with sea fishing. Good luck with your future trips out there and bring some more home pal.

Oh, and I'm back to baiting/luring the carp very soon. It's all about skill not pot luck at carp fishing

I fished carp for about 14 yrs - the best fish I caught were on two or three bits of sweetcorn or freelinin bread.

All this bawlax on bait and bait boats with fish finders/ cameras electric this a that , rowing out an dropping bait, different rigs an stuff aint real fishin to me anymore.

Ok some people have made a livin out of it - that blooody awful Monster Carp tv thing makes me cringe 😡

Having said all that - for years I loved goin - Keadby on Riley?s bus for ten Bob was a real day out as a ****ager who caught bugger all many a time but enjoyed bein with me mates !!!

Regarding fishing tackle, i was once told that everything below the water is designed to catch the fish, everything above the water is designed to catch the angler.
