Yabbie Goodness

I'm not sure what I love most, catching the yabbies or eating the haul.

I won't let anyone use cray pots in my dam, I think that's cheating. Instead we use the good old meat on a string method, with a net and a bucket. 

There are so many in my dam at the moment that I can still get a good bucket load of mid-sizers in the middle of winter, even in the rain!

This was my latest catch...

I let them swim around in my bathtub for 24 hours before giving them a good nights sleep in my freezer.


Then I cleaned them all up to look like this...

and kept aside the claws.

Then got the boys onto the production line.

Mmmm, home-caught, home crumbed yabbies :)
