Got a link to said NMFS studies?

And attempting to save time I did some quick searching and found:

Local gillnet fisherman Dave Marciano said dogfish are vicious predators that compete with cod and other groundfish to eat herring and feed on juvenile cod, creating a nuisance for fishermen. Dogfish often clog his nets or eat groundfish caught in them, he said.

"They didn't get this abundant by being docile," he said. "They eat the cod, they eat the cod's food."


Wow, a FISHERMAN said that, not someone working for the NMFS or Woods Hole! Just like Omega Protein said Striped Bass were eating all the menhaden.

I KNOW they hit live eels. And I do mean HIT, hard.
