All about the Russian necklace!! If I'm wreck fishing and they get bad I just stop fishing for a few minutes and they normally go away for awhile.

Honest question..... The Chinese decimate sharks world wide, mostly for their fins... I know that Dogfish are small sharks, but why wouldn't their fins be just as good for making a tasteless ,gelatinous soup?

We could have them cleaned out within a few months in the NY Bight, if commercials can get a good price from the Communists for them.. I am sure the Belford Fleet would mop em up in short order if given half a chance.. Or are they still under ""endangered species"" protection?.......bob

So the stock biomass is in decline? Commercials still get 20 + million pounds a year and yet they are still around in huge numbers.

So only two things can be done. Stop catching so many cod or start catching more dogfish.

That doesn't really make a lot of sense. If we are overfishing their food source (tog, seabass, cod, etc) then their population should decrease, not increase.

This is probably just a cyclical thing and is more likely the result of an INCREASE of some particular food source, such as porgy or other smaller fish.

Doggies I’m sure are eating more then cod ! No matter if you fish up north in NE or any place in between you can expierence being overwhelmed by doggies .
Recently I was on a Tog trip up north and they would grab your crabs as fast as you got them to the bottom !
I’m no scientist but who’s ever in charge of this charade doesn’t have a clue !
Not much new here !!
