That fish and the wedges looks delicious!! Well done on catching such beautiful fish, and you look like you've filleted a few fish before John. So lovely for you both to get away and have a bit of relaxation for a couple of days xx Cathi xx
A meal fit for a king! Nothing tastes better than fresh fish you catch yourself. The potato wedges are good too. Can’t believe all of the rain you’re getting. Take care you two.
It was forecast to be fine for a couple of days a while ago and it fined up for a day and luckily we went on a wood cutting binge, we were out. Next day it rained again. Its better than being dry but. At least we have good tucker to eat while we are watching the rain. John
Takes me back Old Mate! We used to go trolling for mackerel around Double Island and Scout's Hat Island as kids. Haven't been fishing at sea for nearly 60 years. Couldn't get in and out of the boat these days. Still plenty of fish and chip shops locally though! 😜😊
G’day John & Pat. I see most of the east coast of Australia is getting deluged with rain. Down here in Tassie we are officially in drought and water restrictions start on Monday, it’s dry as a bone 🦴 down here. Great video mate and love the tour in your lovely new boat and those delicious fish 🎣. Cheers to you both. PS. That is exactly what I had for dinner tonight as well, lol
Well done you 2 - nice to get away for a couple of days - that fish looked bloody delicious I like a bit of vinegar on the fish as well - your both looking well - cheers from Tassy
The sugar from the wharf gets put strait into the hold of the ship then taken out at the country it is sold to. Then it is either packaged or has more processing. John

Not much Spanish mackerel in the fish shops, plenty in the sea but not allowed to catch them. John

The fish was extra nice. We ran out about a month ago so it is nice to have some again. John

To keep costs down our fishermen use wooden boats with sail fishing and pulling of net is manual.
Commercial fishing in Australia is dying out the government has made it to hard. John
nice boat
We like it. John
hector is enjoying
He likes boating. He is a bit of a nuisance when we catch a fish he tries to steal it. John
Love the Beer Battered Spanish Mackerel!! North QLD staple! Great video of the islands as well. Cheers
Thanks. Hard to beat the old Spanish. John
Mate don't like the vinegar but the fish is a nice tasting one you caught a good cook she's a keeper
We have had vinegar on our fish since we were kids. Must have developed a taste for it. As far as the cook after 50 years its to late to change. John
most common fish is red snapper,tilapia,nileperch and octopus
Tilapia in Australia is a banned fish. They are not native to Australia. but have been introduced illegally. John
All 54 countries in africa beef i king.north africa lamb is king
In Australia I think variety is King. John
i like fish and rice
Curried rice with fish we like. John
sugar here arrives in bags when sugar deficit occurs
The sugar from the wharf gets put strait into the hold of the ship then taken out at the country it is sold to. Then it is either packaged or has more processing. John
i started eating fish at 10yrs old
I cant remember when I started eating fish. John
10:40 What was that..?!?!? Better out than in... they say. 🙂
Very observant it wasn't what it sounded like. Just the dog moving about. John
ladies in 2024 should emulate yourwife they think cooking is a crime
If there is no cook there is no food no food you starve then you die. John
we also just fry fish but dont steam it
We don't steam fish. John
Nice two day trip! How did the bottom of the boat look? ok?
The bottom was good. My main worry was barnacles on the prop but there was none. John
we eat fish with bones we dont fillet but fish is not popular in africa same to pork and lamb
Most people fillet the fish and take the bones out before cooking. John
most boats here are wooden with yamaha engine
Ours is fibreglass with a Cummins engine. John
