Conger Eels

[jimi]

Are they really from Africa?

 

[boatbuilder]

Do they dance in line?

 

[powerskipper]

Bet they have some slick moves.

 

[Steve Clayton]

Can't be from Africa 'cos it's a Scottish dance (Conge Reels) - or maybe it's sommit to do with fishing?

 

[Clive_Rigden]

No idea, but cook it in stakes in a casserole with a little white wine and a breadcrumb, oatmeal and herb crust and it really doen't matter. Lift lid for last ten minutes to brown the crust.

Caught a big one once - took two of us about 1/2 an hour trying to club it death in the cockpit with the dinghy oars!

 

[Lakesailor]

That would be humane dinghy oars then?

 

[DJE]

Sing to a well known tune:

If the eel that you feel,
Doesn't feel like an eel,
Its a Moray.
