Thanks John. Really enjoyed your vid. People don’t realise the amount of work it takes to be creative. Setting up cameras, editing, voice overs , equipment, and more. Ignore the neysayers. 😊😊
I also think the hooks may be too big as something is picking up the bait but just not connecting with the larger hooks. I've had congers dropping down the side facing the sea but a bugger to land. The bigger congers are in the harbour off the large slate blocks as you approach the Breakwater. Quite deep water there as the harbour was dredged for the 2 large tug boast that were there when the Shell terminal was up and running. I like your honest style of filming and if you blank you blank and sometimes even the best of us do. As far as being an average fisherman you are far from it, double figure bass and some huge huss from the shore, keep it up my friend it's a great hobby. Anyway if it was that easy it would be called catching and not fishing lol.
Hi John, a few words of advice, you need to use a shorter rod about 13' and much stiffer to get those conger out of those rocks quickly also try a multiplier like an ABU 9000 loaded with 50 or 60lb mono. also always remove the tails from the mackerel you use as bait as it stops them spinning in the tide, and put the hook through both jaws of the bait for the same reason Tight lines Diane
Well me and the missus sat here last two nights watching your sea fishing trips ,and got to say loved watching from loading the car to out with yer mates and your daughter's fishing , brilliant videos mate ,only wished I lived up that way instead of the Midlands,I'd have wanted to go fishing with you guys ,banter looks good .only time I seem to sea fish is when I go to Ireland for me holidays off the north coast ,loads and loads of dog fish lol.keep up the videos,next time I'm north Wales will look out for you guys👍👍👌
Nice one John good to meet you at Menai bridge last week 👊 I was vancamped where you park atvthe Port for a week after Menai Camp Had some nice Pollock ATB Mucka 👍👊🚐🐶🏴🏴
@@GAMEKEEPERJOHN hahaha yes mate but trust me size 2s for big fish and 4s for smaller fish I've had alot of big fish in small hooks but try 2s and get some size 2 circle hooks best for congers about 85 percent corner of the mouth hook up ,you'll learn you ain't stupid main thing is your HOOKED 👍
Pitty you did not have a rig with small hooks baited with mackerel I bet they were small whiting, Love the vids keep em comming, will have to get together and I can show you how its done
was up there a few months ago in June lost a decent sized probably a PB conger there on whole squid didnt have a drop net and line gave way about 3/4s out of the water
Dogfish picking the big baits I think. Try Point Lynas which is to the East of there. Had some lovely Conger and my P.B Huss from there just right of the Jetty. Rich

Probably dogs, possibly whiting. I've had a few LRF sessions on there recently using size 12 hooks. Amazing how many species you can get there.
Same as the breakwater loafs of species down the side
Great upload bigman.....you got schooled by your mate ha ha....no shame in that, i always say as long as we're catching it means they are there.
Love your content m8 can't stop watching it
Those bites looked like classic doggy bites, you probably needed smaller baits and hooks to connect with them - thats if you want to catch doggies!😁
I do all types of fishing like yourself and reckon maggots would be a good shout for the minis save missing bites I reckon 👍👍
Haaaaaaaaa you dont understand sea fishing lol
Scale down on hook sizes mate 2/0 That's why missing mate
That’s a good call buddy but I’d rather wait for the bigger fish lol

Had bull huss off the breaky on 1/0 hooks
@@tellitlikeitis-rg4ny nice mate keep at it just enjoy it where in uk are you mate south west?
Looks like you had a fun trip!
Great spot that I went just wrass bashing had about 30 wrass
Pitty you did not have a rig with small hooks baited with mackerel I bet they were small whiting, Love the vids keep em comming, will have to get together and I can show you how its done
Hi john you ok mate, i would put another small hook at top of bait n cee iff that made a difference ??????? All the best from Grimsby
was up there a few months ago in June lost a decent sized probably a PB conger there on whole squid didnt have a drop net and line gave way about 3/4s out of the water
Try a pennel with a circle hook up as the top hook.
Never had much luck at Amlwch same as you loads of bite but no fish ......Ah well better luck next time John
You should have caught more,Circle hooks catch by themselves.
You need to thread the rag worm right up the hook your leaving the tail exposed it can be ripped off
Dogfish picking the big baits I think. Try Point Lynas which is to the East of there.
Had some lovely Conger and my P.B Huss from there just right of the Jetty.
