I use a pennel rig with a 5/0 big mouth hook on the bottom and a 4or5/0 circle hook on the pennel. 9 times out of 10 the hook up is on the circle. Just thought a share would be appreciated🐟🎣

Love circle hooks 🪝 I use them for a majority of my fishing now including Turbot fishing. Nearly always a perfect scissor hold too 👌🏻 thanks for sharing 🥳

Literally never know if I got a bull Huss or a dogfish so good to know this 👌🏾

Thanks for watching and your welcome, once you see it you start spotting them straight away abit like flounder and plaice once you see the subtle differences you never not see them as anything else again.

Bull Huss, Nurse hound and Spotted dogfish. My question Ben, are these names for the same species?

[@theamputeeangler]

Spotted dog fish is a separate fish mate it’s a smaller version of this basically. Bull Huss or nursehound or greater spotted cat shark is this one in question. A dogfish is a spotted dogfish or lesser spotted cat shark. Different fish but look similar

Thanks Ben. Clears that one up.
