A while ago me and my wife went for a fish whilst on a trip to Ulladulla around the light house. I got one of these put it in a rock pool. A few minutes later got a second took a photo of both then let them go to live another day. But my question is what kind of shark and can you eat them.

Yuk. Dog sharks is what we used to call them. Swordies' favourites!! :thumbdown:

Never tried eating one but they live in weedy crevices & usually come out after a big swell pushes them out of their hidey holes. I don't think they'de be much good on the plate.

Cheers,

Grant.

G'day mate, I think what you have there is a Blind Shark, or a Colcloughs Shark,

also get commonly called Dog Sharks.

Personally I would just return them as they do a lot of sea bottom cleaning work..

Cheers..

When I was up in Port Stephens all I caught were those sharks off the rocks, it was damn annoying. Those sharks make a barking sort of sound like a puppy it was freaky :wacko:

I'd say that's why they get the name Dog sharks!

:biggrin2:
