Woo Hoo! And he looks mean!
I’m talking about the dog fish.
Tyler, just don’t forget to stop and teach your dad a few things along the way.
Wow… that’s a heck of a fish to fight on 4# test! Those bowfin fight so hard, I’m surprised he landed it. Congrats to Tyler!

It’s all in the teaching, Grasshopper.
Atta boy, Tyler! You just whipped one of the meanest fish on the planet!
Great job!
Those are a blast to catch; and that looks like a pretty good sized Dogfish too!
That is a big one!! My dad caught one last year but it wasnt that big
Nice one did not know there were in tonka that must have been a battle tx for posting.
Great fish Tyler!
When I was about your age, we were visiting family friends that had lived on Tonka since the 50s. We were fishing for crappies off the dock and I tied into a 7-10 lbs dogfish. My Zebco 202 was SCREAMING as the drag ripped out. The owner dropped his cocktail, ran down the dock to try and find a net. I finally got it close and he leaned over a railing on the end of the deck to scoop the fish. It gave loose and him, his net and my fish all went into the lake.
He passed away not to many years ago, I never forgave him for losing my fish. I am glad you landed yours.
Good times. Too bad Americans Funniest Home Videos wasnt around in the late 70s.
Nice fish Tyler. Any idea on the weight of that fish? Looks huge.
And for The Better Half good job teaching him to wear gloves while handling those dogfish. I think I only caught one so far in my life but will never forget trying to get the slime of my hands.

I can’t take the credit for that one. I wasn’t in the boat for the catch. I just post the pictures. I will have to ask the other half (fish any time) what it weighed.
