Another thing mate, try to at all times avoid washing your catch in fresh water, one thing i have against cleaning tables.
OH and off topic but to do with washing things,,,, never ever use detergent to was out an esky or bait tank or kill tank, always use water and when dry apply a film of white vinegar or lemon to the inside to take any smells away.

Alright mate that sounds good, i'll do that next time we clean the boat, last time i just used soapy water for the esky, next time i'll just do what you said

The fish always get washed in salt water, i take a 20L bucket in the boat and fill it up at the ramp and use it where ever we clean the fish

Monkeys can be educated but they'll still handle their bum holes then put fingers in there mouths.

Tis not the education that defines a person that counts
It's wot they do with it which will define them



Who's been telling ewe these PORKY'S ??????????



That'll teach ewe to launch in the habour plic of a place
Mind ewe my 1st launch there in over 20 years was last year, fushed longy & shorty reefs came back in the dark there was a plik of a 2nd lighthouse sth of the wun on sth head & that's where I headed for till I realised sum ting was wrong.



Salt is salt DanuSun it all comes from the sea just refined differently

I just get the fine table salt bags from woolly's

ps] wait till 2mollo or day after & pull fillet out of freezer & ewe'll see why I do it the way I do

Wont be frozen, Wont have lost any of it's juices [I'd rather have those juices coming out of the bait when it hits the water than use it as brine per googlefishy's suggestion as burley] best of all fillet will be nice & soft

Hey Dan did you notice how all the Stripey fins fitted into the grooves & slots, nature's version of speed & fuel efficiency.
Salted down and wrapped in newspaper turns them into leather and gives the boat a nice smell too.
They blow right back up when you wet them again.

Fed the stripy is dead, only keeping the fillets not the eyes & head so wrapping them up in newspaper is of no avail

They cant read the bloody thing can they ??

Yeah mate, always fillet the fish before we get home, clean and not mess and if cooking, the best way to eat fish i think

I was thinking of getting Pool Salt 25kg for $20 at Big W don't really want to store it though, i'll just get the bags from Woolys, sounds the go

Will check the fillets now

Thanks again mate

Butchers salt is about $1 a kilo and you tell the butcher how much you want and he bags it up.
But it's your choice.

Alright mate, that sounds better

I'll get 10 kg, well i'll tell dad to get some tomorrow

Thanks again

So now ewe've changed your name to BEN 10 kg
