Definitely bleed them. I put them in the eski with sea water and frozen soft drink bottles of water. Fillet them and remove the bloodline. I like them as sashimi, or just on the BBQ. I’m going to try smoking them - I’ve heard they make a nice dip. They go a bit soft when frozen but I’m going to try the frozen fillets I have now in Thai fish cakes.

I thawed some bonito fillets today and made Thai fish cakes for lunch. Yummo! My missus loved them!

I won’t be getting out until probably Monday or Tuesday, so if you want me to berley them up, you’ll have to come up after that. ? It would be great to fish with you, Rick... I do need a big red! Actually, I’m heading over to Perth for a week next month and looking at a charter that might put me onto some decent reds (pink snapper over there) on plastics.
