Goddamn dogfish!!!!

jees, that sounds like a right trek. bet ya could have done with bear grylls wit ya!!!!

In my own opinion dogfish are just a complete nuisance. Some people enjoy catching them, I have no problem with that, each to their own. But if I had the choice between catching them while out on a fishing session or not catching anything I know what I would want everytime - to blank.
I have found that if you tip off with anything silvery like mackerel or sandeel they will be more attracted to your bait and you have more chances of catching them in these situations. They are hard to avoid as they are present in most places around our coast.
Casting out the wife might work, but it wouldn't be advisable

Best tip when your using fish baits is to spray wd-40 all over the bait, doggies cant stand the stuff!!
