Plymouth Wrecking 1972

Plymouth was the Mecca to which offshore wreck anglers were drawn throughout the 1970's, producing monster catches and records galore. This short film digitally extracted from old Super 8 cine film shows a session aboard Dave Ellworthy's 'Anjonika'.

Back in the day when they didnt catch and release. 1 conger can feed someone for months

Yes, thats why we have so little big congers,ling and fish in general...

A shame seeing how many large fish there used to be in the british waters.
