Default Re: Dogfish Eating Cod

You are correct about their numbers. It didn’t matter if you dropped a jig to the bottom or reeled it through the water column. The doggies were on it. I caught one while reeling in a jig that wasn’t more than 10 feet down. We had one that was approaching 4’ in length. The only thing we never caught them on was an umbrella rig.

The market price has to be right for the commercial guys to harvest them. Lobster trap bait? Maybe. Again, if the price is right. Fish and chips? If that’s the case, you can feed the world.
