Scienceman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Sunday up at 4am and on Nth Entrance beach by 5am. No tailor at first light so switched to whiting. Kept those that were 32~34cm so good size. Turned into tempura (prepared properly) cooked over two shifts so it was hot and crisp (just glad I didn't have to clean up the kitchen ) 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home made batter or buy from the shop for the flour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scienceman Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Thanks for all your replies. Got them on live worms but metho-dipped frozen will work when they are plentiful. Took about 3 hours so not very "fast and furious", you have to be patient. Because it was pretty choppy I got quite a few in VERY close behind the shore dump. Sometimes they are there, sometimes further out. I fished the same location last month for a couple of trevally only so the whiting are moving onto the beaches, ready for summer. Tempura batter was from ingredients, egg yolk (1)+ iced water (1 cup) + flour (1 cup), not mixed well, nice and lumpy. Oil at ~170degrees. I really like taking fish photos with the breaking waves in the background. Should have rolled the fish over to show the top rather than their belly for a better photo.
