Title: More reasons not to like fish
Post by: Miss Demeanour on October 21, 2010, 12:27:51 PM: I think I may have mentioned once or twice that I am not partial to fish eating rubschin:

This story was in the papers this morning ...I remain convinced that my position on eating , slimy, stinking, bnoes that can kill you, scaley, bulging eyed creatures is right lol:

This goliath tigerfish was 1.5m (5ft) long and weighed 45kg (7st). It looks hard and it fought even harder.

The prehistoric-looking monsters have been known to attack humans and even crocodiles when they really want to make a point.

Mr Wade said: ‘It is, for all intents and purposes, a giant piranha. It is quite a beast.

‘The teeth on it are incredibly sharp and are about the same length as a great white shark.

‘It also has an extremely powerful bite and has been known to consume prey the same size as itself, attack people and take pieces out of crocodiles.’

Mr Wade, 52, from Bath, Somerset, travelled to a remote section of the Congo river to hunt the beast.

I suppose Robson Green will be wanting one now ::)

Title: Re: More reasons not to like fish
Post by: Snoopy on October 21, 2010, 12:52:57 PM: lol: Sorry but I still find it a pleasure to sit at the side of a lake, river or canal and watch a float. Catching fish is secondary to the pleasure of the solitude.

Nowadays I only fish "for the pot" and we do eat what I catch. Knowing how to fillet a trout so that there are no bones is an art soon acquired. Home smoked trout fillets are yumster.

There is little in the way of coarse fishing in this area but even when I lived in the south I fished canals and rivers for pleasure .... and in the sea for eating.

How are you on shell fish? ~ No bones!

Edit to add PS I lurve kippers for brekky .... how can anyone not?

This video clip on catching Razor clams will make BM a convert ....... if he watches it to the end!
