Comments: Met another angler who stayed until 8.30. Caught much the same, though he had some very small dabs using size 6 hooks. He had fished the steps for many years and didn't think the chances of conger where very good as he'd only had one strap in that time. Time to rethink conger venues! Walked over to Watwick Point initially but couldn't get down to the rocks. Photo below is looking across Watwick Bay towards the steps. Apparently the steps are part of a landing stage and pier that was used in the construction and supply of West Blockhouse on the headland due to the sheltered nature of the bay.
