Only if the blowies are from Cockburn Sound.lol

 Dont see the point, as we have so many other species here to eat, and speak to a vet - I believe they told us the skin is poisonous, so handling them should be avoided too..., hopefully that girl does not get a rash on her titties...anyway, thats how they kill the dogs when they eat them, hence the request from fisheries not to bury them...

Maybe these are a different species to ours?

An Idea may be to have an open day per week for harvesting blowies for those crowds that keep all the undersize fish and crabs, and have no limit on them - that would kill two birds with one stone, so to speak?

Maybe the guy that identifies all the odd species can comment on the reality of the poison in our blowies, and if they can be eaten?

 be any good For bait easy to catch  or 

I would love to give it a go if someone else does first... Of even more interest was the eating smooth blowfish or as we know them Nor west blowies. I have also seen them eaten on a Thalasa episode as well, still not game to try without someone else having a go first. Yanks also eat trigger fish?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8Yc9hgyQ4M

 Interesting - what say the experts?

I was under the impression that the poison was contained in the skin and liver of the fish but still not going to eat one.

I think we need some expert advice for this one before anyone goes jumping in balls and all. It at least would be a good way of doing some population control. blowie lollipops

and here's the NW blowie cooking:

I watched a few of this guys videos (YT channel is "Deer Meet for Dinner) the hunters would probably get a lot out of them. he's not bad on the knife, skinning and processing everything from deer to boar and gators. His mrs isn't bad either!

 Flesh looks fabulous, but I'll leave that to others to try. I did stop some French tourists from carting a big one off the Pt Gregory jetty some years ago to cook back at their tent, they were very excited. "Poisson" and poison, I had to explain the difference in my schoolboy French.

Guys,
Don't presume that the Smoothback Pufferfish lagocephalus inermis that they are processing in some of those videos(and also eat in India and some SE Asian countries) is the same as Lagocephalus sceleratus (Norwest Blowie, Silver Toadfish, Silver-cheeked Toadfish) caught here, in Asia, and now the Mediterranean.

I have seen the Silver Toadfish referred to on a Japanese site as "This is the pufferfish even we don’t eat". !!
And unlike the Smoothback pufferfish, harvest of Silver Toadfish is illegal in many countries due to the high levels of tetrodotoxin.

Even the few pufferfish species that are eaten can vary in toxicity during the year, during reproductive cycles, due to diet, in different areas of range, etc.

This is not something to stuff around with or make fatuous comments about.
You might be joking in your post, but a person reading your post might not see that.

About 10 or 15 years ago outside Dampier harbour some crew on a bulk carrier caught blowies and cooked them up.
Here is the story

A SHIP'S doctor has died in Western Australia after eating blowfish, a delicacy that can prove fatal if not prepared properly.

Authorities were called to an iron ore ship off Dampier early on Saturday after a 43-year-old Chinese man suffered paralysis and his breathing became laboured. 

"We did a co-ordinated rescue effort through Australian Search and Rescue," said Acting Sergeant Chris Hinch. 

"Initially they said it was food poisoning from eating fish and we went out on a boat with two nurses who started CPR on the ship and they did CPR on the doctor all the way back," he said. 

The doctor died in a Karratha hospital on Sunday morning, while two other crew members were also treated, police said. 

Sgt Hinch said police learned through an interpreter that the ship's doctor had shared the blowfish with another crew member on Friday night. 

"The other person who had eaten the fish fell ill and made himself vomit," he said. 

"There was another gentleman who did CPR on the doctor and fell ill because the doctor had vomited while he was giving him CPR. 

"We bought him to shore as a precautionary measure." 

Blowfish contain deadly poison in their organs and in Japan, where they are considered a particular delicacy, only licensed cooks with special kills are allowed to prepare them. 
"Apparently it is a delicacy and there are bars you can go to," Sgt Hinch said. 

"They call it fugu and you have to sign an indemnity to say the chef or owners are not at fault if you fall ill," he said.

 not worth the risk imo 

 An old friend of my dads, who lives and fishes in Kalbarri, told me NW blowie flesh is great bait for Dhu's. After pulling up a bolt cutter off TR i gave it a go and caught a Dhu on the next drop so it does work. Just dont use the skin.

Also pulled up a Dhu from 30m once and it regurgitated 2 small blowies about 6-7cm long so if the smaller ones are poisonous then dhuies dont get affected.

fwiw- I've pulled blowies out of saddletail and crimson snapper, and dhuies when filleting. Reckon there's tastier thing in the sea for humans to sample tho.

 They'll eat them in the surf. And, to re-iterate, have caught a lot of good reds and jew on it when I was wet-lining, always had a couple of bigger circles with big strips of blowie towards the bottom of the rig , if we had any blowies to use.
