Animals??

Excuse an ignorant Scotsman, but what species are classified as animals?

Noticed a lot of mentions of them here and in the Shamrock tackle range.

Ta

generally dogs, huss, conger, ray, conger and all other shark species (tope, smoothie etc) sometimes gurnard and ling are also classified as animals

Seems to be an east coast term. Never heard it used down here in the republic of Cork :)

Aye, but Cork's half the world away... :lol:

never heard it out here in the bogers land of the west coast. we tend to call them "things with teeth" :lol:

on the east coast we describe fish as either an animal or edible

animal : dogs ray tope conger ect.......

edible : cod whiting haddock pollock

thats just the way it is wont bluff an explanation

Cheers guys, will now try out my Shamrock animal traces and see if they work here in Caithness.
