Somebody needs to do what they have been doing for skate and monkfish, make them taste good and get the public at large to like it. I remember fishing in the Bass River by the route 6 bridges in the late 70's/early 80's and catching those things, we would throw them in the rocks so they wouldn't eat our baits, now the stuff is more money per pound than anything out there and I haven't caught one in 20 years. Same with skate, I turned on the TV and there was some Julia Childs clone cooking up skate-fingers and they looked good. Same thing needs to be done with the dogfish.
It could very well be that someone has already taken the sand shark/dogfish and tried to make it taste good and couldn't/failed. I know I've tried it and it ain't all that bad. Not fishy tasting at all and the flesh is very white, whiter than any other fish I have seen with my own two eyes. My buddies Italian mother cooks it up in a gravy/sauce and it is good stuff, a cross between swordfish and mako. It could be that the powers to be consider them to still be endangered, if that is so, what can we do along the lines of trying to get grocery store/convenience stores to sell alcohol to try and get dogfish controlled???
