Rod Otto caught this conger eel from Samphire Hoe and with Folkestone pier open the chance of one of these "big wrigglers" is very good indeed.

Fish to over 50lbs have come from this venue so strong tackle is needed! Down the wall with a pouting or whiting livebait may just put you in a tug of war with one of these monsters from the deep! Good luck!

If you've got a catch worth showing off you can email wesleyshrubsole@gmail.com
