I hope this is a one off, one thing the East coast doesn't need is an invasion of dogfish. They're better than blanking but when you start getting one or two a cast for 8 hours the novelty wears off.

Aye, I take your point Jim. Problem with dogs is when I'm catching them, I don't seem to get anything else. You get a half decent bend in your rod, c'mon, is it a bass, big flatty, no just two identical sized doggers. At least with whiting you might get the odd codling or coalie. Then again, mebbes not.

Bri, dogfish and bull huss are normally sold as Sweet William up here, and Rock Salmon down south. My neighbour loves it, so I normally bring him a few back from Whithorn in the summer.
Smells like ammonia to me though mate, and you have to skin them with pliers

Yeah they're not bad eaters. You've got to get the skin off and that's the tricky bit. They're loads of different ways of getting the skin off but I think you can fillet them, there was a method in Roger Bayzand's column in SA a few years ago. I reckon if you e-mail him, he'd give you some tips.
To be fair to the little fellas, if you go somewhere like Trefor pier in North Wales, you're pretty much certain to have one a chuck after dark. It's clean ground and not much tide and they are good sport on a carp rod. I've had huss upto 8lb there on light tackle and it's a good scrap.
My wife once had a 16lb Huss on a boat in Cornwall, I nearly cried. My next drop I hooked something big, and I mean big. I thought it was a big conger or something except it didn't fight much, it was a rotten seal or sheep carcuss. My life did it smell.

easiest way i find is to:
slice a little nick behind the head
get some pliers and pull the while skin off
cut the head and fins off
ready to eat...enjoy

Lmfao Dave. Imho the only way to cook the said vermin is to fry them. Tried baking them and not tasted anything as bad in my life. Fried is absolutely gorgeous.

I've heard that fly fishing can be a fun way to catch mackerel, pollack and bass. But surely they can't be that common this time of year off Roker Pier?

I dare say if you fished specifically for doggies here during the summer, you'd get a surprise. Same with thornbacks, I know that they used to be caught on the Hall beach and Sunderlands south pier years ago, but no-one ever seriously bottom fishes marks with sandy/mud bottoms during the summer (apart from for flatties), so who knows whats there.
Judging that we now have a Bass fishery (of sorts) up here, as well as mullet around the tees estuary, it makes you think.
