The digital image on the right was taken by Captain Ian Keniston during the ten hour extreme day trip on September 3, 2023. This trip was one of the top three trips of the summer for numbers of fish, variety and size. One of the fish we have been seeing all too frequently is the spiny dogfish. The picture on the right shows Darlene Chin (VT) holding one of the many dogfish we have seen this summer. Darlene is one of our most successful anglers this season. She is also the most successful female angler this year. She does best when catching haddock, one of her favorite fish to catch and eat. She uses cod flies and bait on her most successful haddock days. However, this season, the haddock numbers are down. And because the dogfish love bait the best, with some exceptions, Darlene has switched over from bait to jig. In the shot on the right, the dogfish shown was hooked with a jig, also shown in the picture. The dogfish have been very annoying this season. We aren't catching as many as we caught in the three seasons before. But we are catching enough on some days to promote line tangling and reducing fishing time because of it. And when you are catching a dogfish, you are not catching the more desirable target species. We had three trips this season where we caught so many dogfish that it was hard to get through them to get to the groundfish we love to catch and eat. But almost every trip this season they have been manageable. And even the worse days we still catch some very good groundfish. Some trips we haven't seen any dogfish or just a few, not nearly as bad as those three seasons mentioned above. The best thing about this season is that we have seen more pollock than any of the four previous seasons to this point. Many of these pollock have been in the middle teens with a couple pollock over 20 pounds. On the trip this digital image was taken, Darlene had to have left the boat with almost forty pounds of fillets, mostly pollock but also a cod and some other groundfish species. And being the angler who she is, she usually gets around the dogfish by staying closer to bottom (the dogfish tend to swim higher in the water column) and by knowing her equipment. So she catches a lot of good fish and tends to make the captain look exceptionally good in so doing. Special fish like Darlene's are the kind of fish we like to see caught on the Bunny Clark .
