No Boat, but Still Plenty of Seafood

Two first today, caught a big gummy shark and my first large Mulloway (jewfish) ✅
It was a beautiful arvo so Chris and I attacked the beach chasing Mulloway. We had plenty of action and landed a monster salmon, big gummy and an 83cm Mulloway which was only just over the legal size limit of 82cm. Unfortunately the Mulloway was full of worms. They looked like macro sperm and wiggled after being squeezed out of the flesh, there were heaps, so we decided to turf it. The gummy was good and tasted delicious in beer batter then shared with friends, there was heaps for everyone including the neighbours and still enough to freeze for another couple of meals.
The neighbours Richard and Jacintha returned the favour supplying some beautiful blue swimmer crabs and I cooked them up using Matt Moran’s black pepper blue swimmer crab recipe, and owe my god! it is now my favourite recipe….. yum yum yum!
