THE BELOVED DOGFISH - Page 2

Miles Offshore · 09-17-2005, 11:07 PM

My buddies dad (the wildman of manteo) was a gillnetter and had gotten sick and was in the hospital. So his son and mua took his chesapeake deadrise and to help him out were doing some rockfishing to help himout. This was back when paper machines were it. I guess you know where this tale is going by now. Anyways we had a few good drops and had caught a fair number when we had some nice marks and made the fatal drop. Nothin but dogs, i mean that gill net slam full of em- scratch one gill net- wildman wasnt happy-

to our credit i thought though is it was damn hard to tell the difference between a rockfish and a dogfish on an old ass paper machine- god rest his soul- another quick wildman story- never mind- another thread another time- craig

SPINY DOGFISH SWIM IN GROUPS OF SAME CLASS AND SEX

SPINY DOGFISH START TO REPRODUCE AT 8 YEARS OLD

SPINY DOGFISH GIVE BIRTH TO LIVE YOUNG 2 TO 15 ,, AFTER A 22 MONTH GESTSTATION,,,OFF N.C.

CODFISH LIKE TA EAT UM WHEN THEY SMALL EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE MILDLY VENOUMUS SPIKES IN FRONT OF BOTH DORSAL FINS

COMMERCIAL FISHING PRESSURE USUALLY WIPES OUT ONE SEX OR THE OTHER. IN THE LATE 90S THEY RECORDED ALMOST ALL FEMALES

STOCK ASSESMENTS WERE NEEDED TO DETERMINE BEST MANAGEMENT SINCE THEY NEED TA BE 8 YEARS OLD TA SPAWN

IN THE LATE 90S THEY WERE WORTH 9 MIL TO COMMERCIALS NOW THEY WORTH ONLY ABOUT 2 MIL

MOST OF THE MEAT IS SOLD TO ENGLAND FISH AND CHIP HOUSES

THEY LIKE HERRING AND MACKERAL

WHEN YA CLEAN UM TOSS THE FILLET IN A BUCKET OF OFFSHORE WATER FOR A MINUTE TO BRINE OUT THE PEE FLAVOR SOME DEVELOPE

BORROW SOMBODY ELESES KNIFE FOR CUTTING THEM

IN THE BAHAMAS,,,REEF SHARK MEAT IS SOAKED IN 100% LIME JUICE,,THEN COOKED IN A STEW WITH COCONUT MILK AND A PLATE OF RICE AND PEAS

IN PNG THE YOUNG MEN ARE SENT OUT IN A CANOE WITH A ROUND STRING OF COCONUT SHELLS TO SHAKE ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER,,,,WHEN DA BUGGER COMES UP THEY PUT OUT A FOUR FOOT LONG BOARD WITH A NOOSE IN THE CENTER,, MADE OF PANDANUS FIBER OR COCONUT ROPE,,,IN FRONT DA NOOS THEY DANGLE ONE FISH HEAD,,,WHEN HIM SMIM INTO NOOSE THEY PULLIT TIGHT AND MAKE ONE KNOT ONTOP OF BOARD,,THEN LET GO,,,THEM SHARK SWIM AROUND CANOE FOR A WHILE WITH BOARD FLOAT ATTACHED,,,,NO BETTYIES TILL AFTER YOU CATCH ONE SHARK!!!

I have thrown back hundreds of them. Mostly in the 5-10lb class. If you are keeping a bunch to sell, how should they be prep'd?
