Yesterday’s Harly

 Would’ve preferred that to read yesterday’s banger ... got out with duges66 about 9ish from woodies a bit lumpy early but she settled down later . Found myself wearing thongs on the deck early arvo the carpet was getting that hot . Anyways found some good shows of fish but it was hard going tempting them though , ended up with this harlequin , a decent nanny and blackbum , few good size skippy and half a bucket of sandwhiting in the bag . I haven’t kept a Harlequin before so looking forward to giving this one a taste test .

 Nice pic and top looking fish. Never tried one myself but have heard they are not bad on the chew.

I ended up doing the same, walked out on the carpet and nearly ended up with blisters on my feet so on with the thongs..hahah

Let us know how it tasted ...well done

 They are good on the plate, pan fry with some chips and salad. Very good grub.

 This is how to turn average

Thu, 2016-12-22 19:48

 This is how to turn average fish ( skippy ) into a good feed . Crispy deep fried with tamarind sauce base , firm flesh comes up a treat . 

 
At a glance it was around 56/57cmTimmy largest I've caught .

 I reckon they're good on the chew, and that one is a stonker. Skippy looks bloody yummo too.
