the fish was caught late may/early june at the nwc. the wound was pretty jagged and seemed to be fairly new. usually a blue leaves a pretty clean cut and i'd be surprised if a doggie could damage a striper like that - i've seen them tear apart cod and pogs but not like that. prob a fn seal

most likely a bluefish.
dogfish don't have teeth sharp enough to do damage like that. you can stick your fingers in their mouth and they don't do any more damage than a bass does.

Doggies will eat a live bluefish right off a hook when giant fishing. Dogfish will eat anything they can get their mouth on. They do a ton of damage albeit they don't have the protoypical teeth associated with ripping and tearing flesh like a bluefish.

That wound I would say is from a seal attack.
