with 12 venemous dorsal spines, supposed to be good eating if you can get past the spines.  It'd want to be bigger than that one for me to have a go.

They have 12 spines that are poisonous you don't want to be spiked trust me !!!!!

what i do is slice a fillet off each side skin the fillets and then boil them and its probably one of the best fish you will ever eat 

just make sure you wear a mesh glove whilest handling them and dont mix them with your other catch, litterly 1 touch of the spike and the pain will wana make you

cut your finger off and the pain never leaves  i know this as my mate got spiked 2 years ago and it still is a soft spot on his finger

Nice catch

Nice feed there, especially in a tinny and battling against unfavourable weather conditions.

Might have passed on the red spikey fish, though...looks nasty. Years ago I saw my brother-in-law get spiked in the back of the hand by a similar sort of fish and he was in a lot of pain for quite a while.

Enjoy those dhuie fillets

Have heard a number of people say they are tasty.

Definitely keen to try one, just not keen to fillet it!

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
