We had finally arrived at Hurleston Junction after 4 days of getting up early and travelling for 8 hours a day. We moored just above the Hurleston flight on the Llangollen and I did my usual of setting my rod up to do a bit of ledgering. As the Llangollen flows all the time I thought this would be the best way of fishing. What I didn't realise is that a static bait at the bottom of the canal attracted eels!!! In fact in all the five years of fishing this canal I had never caught an eel and didn't even think there were any in it. I was very shocked to see this one especially when I thought I had a really good fish on. I must say it put me off a for at least 5 minutes!!!!! It didn't put me of for any longer.
