For the first half hour of the comp I had 3 traces all baited would wind in one dogfish cast out next trace, rebait other one, wind in another dogfish and do the same all over. Got tired after half an hour of walking up and down the beach winding in dogfish. Probably woulda been 100 dead dogfish thrown in the sea after the weigh in.
