Bulldog Fish

Bulldog Fish (Marcusenius macrolepidotus) is a small bottom-dwelling schooling fish that inhabits overgrown, muddy areas of waterways. This peculiar fish got its name due to its extended lower jaw, which resembles that of a bulldog. It uses its own electric field generated by its muscles to orient itself in space, search for food, and detect predators. It is active both during the day and at night. It feeds mainly from the bottom, picking up various invertebrates, as well as larvae and pupae of small insects.

When it comes to float, feeder, or bottom fishing, the best way to catch Bulldog Fish would be to use Bloodworms on a size #1 hook.
