      • Big well fed doggy that first one. Sure it isn't a Huss? Any experts got an input?

        • The chewed up fish is a Poor Cod. I've had a canny few of those off the south coast and the glitter next to it confirms it. You always end up covered in loads of scales Nice catch well done.


          Regarding Huss/LSD, I got this off the internet.....

          There are a couple main ways to identify these fish apart. The first identity method is to look at the nasal flaps of each fish. The Bull Huss nasal flaps are separate and not continuous with the upper lip like the Dogfish.



          The other way is by colouration, the Bull Huss generally has larger spots and is usually a darker colour with dark blotches underneath unlike the dogfish which is completely white underneath. This picture shows a Bull Huss on top and a Dogfish below it.




          So without a photo of the underside of each fish we cannot say for sure but based on the markings I would say this one below could possibly be a huss but the others are all LSD.



          What do you think?

                • Yeah that's a good idea. I'll hang on putting it up until we are sure. I am still doubtful about the small "huss" as the spots along it's back are small like a LSD wheras in the photo of the two side by side the huss has large spots on it's back not small. Either way Wee Ver definately has LSD, Spurdog and Poor Cod to add to the list. If we can confirm the other one is a huss too then I will add it.

                  • one of the scotts says its not a huss and the lsd's vary in colouration quite a lot
