penthrox 0 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Well I will be buggered. A fisheries officer told me about 2 months ago they are protected! Well clearly he and I had a misunderstanding!Sorry about that {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest undertaker Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Agreed.Dog shark = Port Jackson Shark (?) = PROTECTEDWhat's the old story re cooking a galah?A large pot of water,a galah and a stone.Boil until stone is soft,throw away the galah and eat the stone.Rather eat a Turkish wrestlers jock strap.

Ranger 48 Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 anyone who eats a Port Jackson shark will need a good supply of knives and be a very good sharpener, they have skin tougher than any other living animal on earth (well almost) and a big speciman MAY yeild about 200 grams of edible flesh, they are prehistoric in their make up and have a big boney head and body, and those stupid looking spikes on their dorsal fins, only good thing about them is when you hook one, for a jiffy you think you have something good, OH and they can be good fun to grab when diving and let them take you for a ride, but might just as well chuck 'em back, pretty useless for anything, and they can give you a very nasty "gumming" if one clamps onto your finger, hurts like buggery. Theese sre protected in some states not all.As for cooking and eating get 2 large pebbles put in pot with fish,bring to boil,when pebbles are soft enough to eat throw away fish and eat pebbles,They also have a poison sac in them so be aware. we ran into the maratime / fisheries guys yesterday & they said no dramas to catch, but didn't know if they tasted any good.bag limit is as for school sharks in nsw. I did some quick research as I was interested to find out more.Seems these sharks are on the least threatened list of species which means it is very likely they can be eaten or even kept as pets etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YoBBo 0 Posted June 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 well damm, some are saying they are protected, and the pirsa website doesnt include them in their protected species.This will take a phone call im thinking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RogerG 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Dog Shark or Port Jackson is not on any protected list in South Australia, however there is a species in NSW Known localy as a Port Jackson shark which is protected but it is not the same species as ours.An average sized PJ from the Spencer Gulf, around 6kg, would yield about 150 grams of flesh if you could hold your breath long enough to butcher it.

benny 1 Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Dunno about eating doggies, but fiddlers are pretty good, I kept one once and I filleted the tail and Its was bloody bewdiful the wings were crap I scraped the meat off and gave to the dog and deepfried the cartilage and that was pretty good too.
