hooklineanddrinker Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Went for a session this arvo on the rocks. 3 rock cockies, 5 pigs and 7 luderick. These were the stand out worth keeping but the chinaman fishing next to me wanted the rock cockies. Crappy flesh and in plague proportions.... who'd wanna eat'em.... spose he'd have a recipe for them. My knife is 32.5 cms long and I got smoked 6 times too and lost 2 floats! All good in a 4.5hr session. Outta here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bass_beginner Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 congratulations and they would definately go well as a feed with a few beverages.... but yeh dunno why anyone would want them me and the old bloke used to fish for pigs in a gutter up near south west rocks and they used to be there guaranteed u would catch 6 or 7 an hour and for some reason we used to know once again a chinaman who asked us to bring him back a few everytime we went out.... go figure...neways well done on the feed and tight lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donjuarez Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Was up around byron bay for New years, and there were some Koreans fishing the stones catching cockies and Kelpies.

AJ I once took the plunge and tried the cockies. if you bleed them, skin / fillet / debone them and fry them in a tom-yum sauce they taste the same as the luderick. The sauce is quite a strong asian flavour and masks some of the iodine-type taste of the rock-cale. I don't fish the stones any more but if I did, I would still keep them... How do you think the first person to ever eat octopus felt? All his mates and girl-friends would have thought the bloke was a social outcast - a mentally deficient goof who would eat anything - until he opened up a seafood restaurant selling BBQ octopus as his specialty.... Now they line up for a table.... Have an open mind - experiment a bit and you will learn what an amazing source of food the ocean can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
