yup, cut into thin strips and covered in breadcrumbs and served with a slice of lemon and some tartare sauce. Blooming marvellous. I caught it on sunday and left it in the fridge till weds. I had to eat it as they are all I am cathing at the mo.

That a strip of human buttock rolled in seasoned flour tastes very similar, but I wouldn't eat that either!

lets b honest if they wernt so diffcult to get the skin off they'd b alot more popular. iv had them a few times, they're not like killing any other fish either which can put u off a bit.

Very, very good eating - I bring a load of the bigger ones back for the freezer every time I go fishing as none of my mates eat them, so give their catches to me

Must admit - I haven't caught a doggie yet - is it difficult to send them to the big blue sea in the sky?

No, but they take an hour or two to realise that they're dead

I stick a knife in the top of their brainstem and wiggle it around to kill them almost instantly then during slack times between bites take off their heads and gut them before taking them home.

Back home when I skin them (pour boiling or very hot water over them and the skin peels off really easily) they still twitch and coil, ages after being gutted

I'm not that squeamish but that sounds gross.

i kept one once, i dropped its guts on the spot wher i was fishing, n took the rest of it back up to the bungalow to skin etc, it was still moving all the way home, i left it in a black bin liner on the grass while i watched match of day, when i come to see to it, it was still moving about!! obviously it was dead, but nerves, thers that many nerves in a sharks body.
