The Best Fish and Chips Ever! EAT DOG FISH PLEASE | How to Catch & Cook The UK Shark Mini Species
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- This video shows our favourite dad and lad team on yet another adventure this time Sea Fishing in North Wales again, this one actually being two sessions combined.
Visiting Llanfairfechan to target the Bass on both night fishing sessions we get a super alternative to the Bass in the form of our friend and yours the UK Dog Fish or Specifically the Lesser Spotted Cat Shark.
As ever we are happy to catch anything that will take a bait. We dug bait and pumped lugworm before the session and started fishing the beach, the enjoyable sessions followed with us ending with a stunning sunrise behind the mountain from the beach.
We catch lots of fish and have our customary cake and a brew in our fishing campervan, sleeping in our van overnight to ensure we were safe to drive home after our long Sea fishing session.
As a special nod to the under-appreciated Dog Fish, I show you how to Catch & Cook the super fish, showing you how to prepare it by skinning it and then deep frying it for Homemade fish and chips then hopefully showing you that it is an amazing alternative to Cod, Haddock or Pollock and in my opinion is superior to Cod and the other white fish.
Fishing marks and the Postcodes are below along with the what 3 words locations for precise spot finding. You will find more area information about Llanfairfechan in my other videos on the channel.
We do hope you enjoy the video, do ask us any questions you like via comment or email.
Hope you can get out fishing & I hope you have some fantastic, safe fun, Finding Fish too.

Hi mate, nice one. The very first fish I landed lol. An what a lovely looking fish.. 👍😎
Thanks for the cool comment, lovely looking fish indeed they are. All the best. 🎣👍
Thanks for the cool comment, lovely looking fish indeed they are. All the best. 🎣👍
Great video full of useful information I particularly like the maps and location detail and the cook up pity no bass showed up guys
Thanks Peter I do like to show as much venue info as I can think of at time of editing and wanted to use my touchscreen for something fun instead of work all the time so it found its way into my videos. We regard bass as such a treat so yeah shame, but makes when we do get them all the more special. Or at least we think so. Thanks so much for the cool comment all the best pal. Tim & Dave
Still time for bass Tim obviously you can't keep them now. Never bothered skinning dogs before but huss I eat quite a bit and very tasty too. Hope the old man is ok. Good news is that my dad is on the mend after his spell in hospital and is home now. All the best Tightlines 🏴🐟🎣
Your catch and cook was cool for the Huss 😋 glad your Old man is on the mend Ceirion....I know we can occasionally be labelled as hard fishermen but we can't help worrying bout our families especially our oldies 😉 All the best mate.
Great video again gents, and putting the van to good use
I was on the breakwater at amlwch Friday and had three mackerel , their were chasing my squid baited pulley rig in
So still hope for bass I think
Keep well both of you
Thanks Ian glad you liked the video pal, always love it when something like that happens when sea fishing, I've had many a session hunting mackerel with Lures and feathers only to pick them up tight to the bottom on lugworm intended for anything other than Mackerel (very welcome obviously non the less) always a chance for a Bass you're correct 😉 all the best 🎣 👍
Nice video.👍👍 Hope your dad's ok now.🤞🤞
A beautiful sunrise.🌅 Some cracking scenery too.🏞️
It's a shame that people have such a downer on dogfish🥺, yet count them as a blank saver🤔🤔. A stunning fish in my eyes.🦈
Glad the camper is working for you.🚐
I look forward to future trips.🫣
Thanks for sharing.👍👍
Take care and stay safe.😷🙊
Thanks Ian pal, yeah some really nice memories recorded on that trip seaside sunrises of that quality are few and far between when you live inland like us, the old man is back to fighting fit ta for asking I'm totally on the same page as you with the humble doggie, it gets a bad rap but a high place on a blank sheet and i wonder how many matches doggies have won alone 🤷♂️...the way it is I guess, we may have been brainwashed into regarding the other fish species as superior to the doggy but not me and luckily not others too like yourself. All the best Ian. Tim & Dave.
Was that Dad's recipe gone wrong 🙂 yes mate had a few Dogs in the past, and the fish 🤣🤣 about time we all eat them like you said, they go nice with welsh cakes for afters 🤣🤣✌✌
You know our Welsh cakes might not be worth the wait and also you can't blame me its my dad needs pull him baking finger out, also no not my dads recipe or I'd have slapped my own hands for making a budget scone, just was using up some ingredients I had left in the cupboard tasted good non the less, doggy and chips is an underrated meal all I can do is take a horse to water i cant make it drink (or cook Doggy and chips) but we all should. Thanks for the comment casters pal. Tightlines all the best. I 🎣🐕🍟
great vid the cooked fish looked tasty , tbh i have never tried doggy but may give it go some time
Thanks Dave you must try it pal such a good fish to eat and it really is a myth that it's hard to prep as I showed quite simple really there are other videos go into more detail to peep a doggy but I find it easy now I've done a few. All the best Dave.
Not sure if anybody has already mentioned this in the comments, but dogfish was known as rock salmon years ago, chippies used to sell it. Never tried it myself, but I heard good things about the flavour.
Thanks for your comment Carl, I got told personally that it was very popular once over and although I have not personally seen it near me in any chippies they do still sell Rock & Chips or as you rightly put it Rock Salmon and Chips in a number of places apparently. People/chippies should definitely start selling/cooking it again, I really don't know the reason it has disappeared from the shops but would be nice to see a clearly abundant and tasty fish being sold again widely, got to be cheaper i should imagine too, the price of fish and chips these days is very high ...maybe we need a nationwide ad campaign to get Dog Fish back on our menus. You should definitely try it though Carl if you can. Thanks for the cool comment pal all the best.🎣
@@FindingFishUK no worries mate, good luck with the channel. Subscribed.
@@carlkermode899 cheers pal & thanks for the sub 👌👍🎣
I often choose dogfish down the local chippy if it’s available on the menu. Anyone who’s eaten “Rock” from the fish and chip shop, this is what that is.
And right you are too sir, thanks for the cool comment and watching the video. 🎣👏
Great video as always ..hope Dads feeling better as well.
Never eaten Doggie before but them fillet's looked awesome.
Thanks pal glad you enjoyed the video, dads back to his normal self (as normal as can be lol) you've godda try doggie especially fish and chips style it's delicious 😋 thanks for the cool comment, all the best.
Like you I don't mind catching doggies...i fish to catch fish and a dogfish is a fish 🤣🤣 I've never tried a dogfish so maybe I will keep one next time I catch 1...Another great video..keep them coming.
Thanks Brian, as i say in the video they are great, you should try it 100% I'd say it probably takes a little longer than Cod or Haddock to cook ...so if its a first time cook ..cook it for longer than cod but I always do a test piece to get the bigger sizes perfect, it holds well in the oven too once fried and doesn't dry out like cod can do when re dunked to get the batter crunchy again. Thanks for the cool comment again Brian all the best to you pal.
Great little video really enjoyed watching it as a new subscriber to the channel 🎣🌊🐟😎👍🏻
Thanks for the Sub Darrel, the Dog Fish gets too bad of a rap in my opinion and is a cracking eating fish thanks for watching, all the best Tim & Dave. 🎣🐟👍🫡
Hi matey you ok n your par, thanks for the watch again i realy enjoyed it again. Hope your par had a speedy recovery. Your cakes looked grand i need to start making some of my own hahaha. Great start to day looking out the sea fishing hotel window n seeing a rainbow n sea. I hav'n t tried dogfish yet myself , people do say they taste nice. All the best chaps from GRIMSBY
Love you call our camper 'The Sea Fishing Hotel' very cool man!! You must try dogfish it's delicious 😋 if you like a good fish and chips, it's up there with em... the cakes were honestly just a quick use up what baking stuff I had in the cupboard recipe, they were tasty non the less and although not followed to the T was a simple scone recipe from online i adapted to suite the lack of ingredients I actually had lol. You should give it a go nothing to loose except your figure 😉... My dads the proper baker between us just a little offering of my own. Your comments are always great Carl👍 All the best. 🎣🐕🍰
When I was young I’d always have rock eel!
Of course rock eel is another name for the sandpapery fisherman's friend. You should still eat it now if you can. I might even use that name for the humble doggy when I catch the next one. Thanks for the comment. Tim & Dave. 🎣
Another XLNT video Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching pal 👍
Great video mate, I will give it a go 👍 tight lines 🎣🐟
Thanks Ian, glad you liked the video, you won't be disappointed. Tightlines to you to mate. All the best from Tim & Dave.
Another brilliant video Tim. I was concerned for Dad but relieved when he showed up. As you’ve said some anglers put the doggies down as a nuisance, but a fish is a fish and better than nothing and being totally honest I’m just so happy to be out there.
Your meal looked very tasty, right up my street, having watched you prepare it. Well done for a very entertaining vid.👍
Look forward to the next outing, take care all.
Thanks Stephen, glad you liked our latest installment, was a tasty meal and if you can, you should try it. 😋 we love it when people say our videos are entertaining and the support is totally brilliant. We look forward to bringing you another outing. All the best take care too pal. Tim & Dave.
Another fantastic video Tim I have often thought of eating dog fish as I've been told it's lovely. I've turned I to a big softy in my old age and keep putting them back.
Loved the video mucker channel is definitely heading in the right direction.
Take care buddy and tight lines 👍
Thanks again Shane for watching, honestly doggy tastes lovely just like cod, we are chuffed with every single view and sub we get its amazing, as I keep saying it's so much appreciated pal, I've noticed subs increase when you've mentioned us so it 100% proves your support works wonders for us we can't thankyou enough. All the very very best Shane.
Came across dogfish in local market & plan to try it, thats how I found the video. Cod was £26 per kg whilst dogfish was under £10 a kilo, worth a try. Video was very interesting & informative so I’ll be buying tomorrow.
What a great comment to read!!
Thank you so much. I am pleased you have found our video and are going to try the much under-rated Dogfish/Rock Salmon. In our opinion, you won't be disappointed, we cook it just like Cod and think it out performs Cod for taste everytime. Cod is mainly meat with much less taste than DogFish.
You will find that DogFish has all the meaty elements of White fish but has much more taste. We decided to try it and there is no going back now its a staple freezer fish for us now. bon appetite 😋 👍🎣
enjoyed the video, how is your dad , he looked quite tired.
He's back to fighting fit again now Eric thanks for asking, he was pooched by the end of that session as you could clearly tell, but he decides to fish for so long so hope y'all don't think I push the old man. He loves it really, hates being stuck in the house. Thanks for the comment Eric, all the best pal.
Well done very good
Thanks pal 😊👍😎
totally agree, dog fish is one of my favourite fish to eat, its SOOOO good, great video mate, ive liked and subbed, trying to film my days out but im not the best infront of camera lol
Thanks for the cool comment pal Dog Fish by far one of our most under appreciated fish to ear...as for filming just do it pal!! ....I've got about as much personality or skill infront of the camera as a lug worm 🤣 so don't worry about stuff like that just give it a go people just love watching fishing ...me included. All the best for the future pal. Tim & Dave. 🎣👍🐟
I always keep dogfish if they are a decent size, taste nice but bloody tough to skin.
I totally agree a decent size Dogfish is as prized as any other fish for me now. They can be tough to skin but a decent "sharp' knife to get the skin started away from the meat and slowly but surely tugging all this with gloves on does the trick. In my opinion how easy they are to debone/decartalage after being skinned to have zero bones is easier than the prep needed pin boning other fish I think. Thanks for the comment and all the best pal. Tim & Dave.
Great to see someone championing the humble dogfish as a great edible fish. I'm a blockman in a fish factory, sadly the thousands of doggies that come in off of landings all go back out as pot bait. Such a waste.
I'm desperately thankful they atleast go back to the sea even if as pot bait, but dogfish is such an underrated eating fish. I cant help but love the humble Doggie. You must see some sights in your job (good & bad) Thanks so much for watching and the comment pal. All the best Jon.
Dog reaction everytime he said dogfish 😂
I know right!! thinks I'm talking about him oddly everytime I say dogfish he's a strange one 🤣 thanks for the comment 👍🎣🐟🐕
Rock and chips is standard in my house
Thanks for the comment, and glad to hear it too, the more people eat dogfish the better. All the best pal. 🎣👍
As i said on another channel,we should have a ban on other fish species say maybe every third year and solely take dogfish.
It would give other species a better chance as well as thinning the dogfish out.
Thanks for the comment, very good point well made, my opinion will likely always be that rod & line Anglers cant impact stocks of any species realistically speaking and i do take other species to eat, but if we all took more Dog Fish as its so much more sustainable i think all would win as a result. Thanks for watching all the best.
Not too late for Bass fella. Had 12 of them Tuesday just gone.
Well done 12 WOW & Oh of course your right... I've seen bass caught on cold winter days in Jan & Feb and many bass coming out at the moment, more a case of in the past coming into November when it cools off bass have been fewer and further between for us personally but to be honest in the video i might of been trying to make excuses why we didn't catch any bass lol...when the same beach not long before this session produced loads...hey everyday can be a school day and that's fishing. Thanks for the comment and all the best pal. Tightlines.
@@FindingFishUK I'll admit I wasn't using bait though, fish lures mostly.
Try Pensarn beach mate if they seem to have moved off from Llanfairfechan.
Same as you're doing in this video using freshly pumped Lugworm.
Blow lug will work too as there's quite a lot of them there.
Just use what's present at the particular beach you're on.
Razorfish is a good bait at Llanfairfechan.
Never eaten Dogfish but I have eaten Bull Huss and that was delicious.
@@richardjones2811 no need to reveal you used lures like its a confession pal, lure fishing is a skill for sure so my extra kudos to you. Thanks for the razor tip, the fish might know there's a ban on collecting razors on that beach so might be why they love them more lol 😆 (my jokes are bad sorry) if you like Huss, dog fish is very similar just obviously smaller in most cases and are a tad easier to catch too than the Bull 😉 thanks for all the info pal have a good one and Tightlines.
@@FindingFishUK You're too kind for the kudos for lure fishing.
It's like second nature now for me and much more selective to catch a target species.
Yes razors are banned from being collected there thanks to the large influx of Chinese decimating the population there 😏.
Collect the Razors at a different beach and use them at Llanfair, that's what I do to keep this side of the law.
Tight lines to you too buddy and all the best for the next vid 👍
enjoyed the vid as usual, Im interested in your campervan, what model is it
Thanks, glad you liked the vid, van is a Vauxhall Movano.
Dont they sell dogfish in the London area and call it Rock Salmon ?
Thanks for your comment James and yes I think it is on more menus in the south of our country but upon reading a little online "rock Salmon" as its referred to can actually be Huss, Spurdog or Smooth Hound. I think it might be a case of getting the most meat from it to make most money i guess ....which I would suggest would make the Huss or Spurdog the more likely fish on the menus and in my eyes Huss, SmoothHound and Spurdog are not very sustainable. In fact endangered so might not be anymore so I'd say mostly likley Huss But in my opinion we all (including restaurants) should eat the humble Dog Fish it is easy to catch, plenty of them and Tastes great. Super sustainable. Thanks for your comment and the watch pal. All the best.
'Rock Salmon'!
Correct!! Cheapest and easiest caught Salmon I know of too 😂 thanks for the comment William. 👍
🐟😀👍
🐟👌🎅👍
Only English man promoting people to try dogfish 😂😂😂 this fish is pork of the sea/ocean
Aye 😉, Dog Fish is delicious no promotion needed really once tried, but if by us putting it out there just one person extra might try it we have done our job. 👍🎣
Your dad's in the camper van because he's embarrassed with you shoving fish up against the camera lens. The fish have more personality. Your poor dad looks as though he'd rather be at home on the sofa, poor man.
👍
Youre a scary dude.
Not sure on context but thanks for the comment.
As a southerner living in Liverpool and fishing the Mersey I have no idea why you don't eat Doggies up here see call it rock salmon in the chip shops in London and the south.
I know right....I'm from up here and I don't understand it either 🤣 with rock and chips we stand united (no football puns intended)...thanks for the comment mate, 🎣 Tightlines and all the best from Me & my Dad.
