Hi Dave re those bags for the vacuum sealers,I have a foodsaver vacuum sealer and big w charges the earth for the bags,but I can pick up 2 x 6 meter rolls on ebay for around the 14 dollar mark,from Australia,great value.Definitely vacuum sealing is the way to go.

[@NoNopeAndNo]

If ya get a chance to add to your video selection on salmon, do a video on how you cook, bake or smoke your salmon. Great videos mate

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Gday Mike I have thought about doing a smoking salmon video but not a cooking one, never considered myself a Gordon Ramsey LoL. We will have to see what may happen, and thank you for the complement very much appreciated.All the best mate.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Thank you Pauline, that is nice of you to say. Mitsy has passed now she was nearly 21 she sat on my shed table many times watching me fillet my fish she was a lovely cat with a beautiful nature. Thankyou for watching and commenting. Cheers David.

[@thesilverbackozzy8323]

I cant believe some people think Salmon are rubbish fish. I love them. Covered in bread crumbs with a twist of lemon. Ah well more for us hey 👍

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Absolutely beautiful, bread crumbs, panko crumbs, beer batter. Now I need to go catch a salmon my mouth is drooling. Thanks for saying A D. Cheers David.

[@timothyhugo7333]

Hi David I enjoy watching all your videos! How long can you keep fish in your vac sealed bags for in the freezer?

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Timothy. Thank you and glad you enjoy my videos it means a lot. I haven't actually tryed to see how long the fish last for in the freezer vac sealed, I do know it lasts a lot longer than in a freezer bag. Also fish like salmon, snook, Tommy ruff, mullet and other oily fish taste far better vac sealed than frozen in a freezer bag. On Google some people say 6 months some say a year some say 2 years, so I will say a long time. All the best....David

[@NoNopeAndNo]

Good job. Thanks

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Thank you Mike J it's my pleasure and thanks for the sub mate much appreciated.

[@cliffw6031]

Top job David. I don't bleed mine but will try in the future. I don't fillet them either, just cook the fish whole. Good idea to fillet them and I will in the future as well to see what difference it makes. Will get a Cryovac sealer machine as they are good. one of my mates sealled a heap for me when I went fishing with him at Batemans bay. they are excellent.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Gday Cliff yes mate good idea to bleed your salmon small and large, they taste better and freeze better. and them Cryovac machines do work a treat. filleting fish is a good option and great for kids, but Marco Pierre White says they taste better on the bone hmm he may be right. Thanks for the comment mate.

No worries

[@jacobnadas5947]

Hi David, Can the Aussie salmon fillets be vacuum sealed and frozen for later smoking?

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Jacob, yes no worries at the end of this video I show vacuum sealing the salmon fillet, it is for sure the best way to freeze it for future meals including smoking. Enjoy mate yum

[@069vass]

Hi David, I really enjoy your videos! You keep it nice and simple. I’ve been catching some larger Salmon around the 2kg mark but I think I’d rather catch the smaller ones as per your video. I’m sure they’d be much nicer to eat! I noticed that the vacuum sealers you own are both Sunbeam. Have you had them for a long time and would you recommend the brand? After watching your vid I’m convinced on buying one. Dave here also by the way! Cheers.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Dave, sorry late reply mate. yes I will give sunbeam a thumbs up they have done very well with no problems. We use them for vacuum sealing maggots, hundreds of packets and they sometimes overheat on hot days but never have broken down. Vacuum sealing fish is the only way to go. Cheers David. P.S the big salmon make yummy fish cakes.

[@069vass]

David Sheldon Fishing Thanks for replying David! I ended buying a Sunbeam with the auto settings. I’ve used it only once to vacuum seal some steak...so far so good:) I’ll definitely look on Ebay for some cheaper bags. I haven’t attempted making fish cakes with the Salmon but my wife makes yummy spring rolls with them which is probably the only way I enjoy eating them hahaha.

[@sausagesandwichSA]

Good one mate....the cat got bored.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Thanks mate. Yep the cat got bored and a little bit fatter

[@Galvoflysoz]

No size and bag limits where you are? 300mm and no more than 4 fish in WA

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

G'day Stephen. Yes we do have bag limits in SA Between 21cm and 35cm bag limit 20 salmon trout and over 35cm 10 salmon. Wow big difference between both states. Cheers David

[@Galvoflysoz]

@@davidsheldonfishing9726 yeah I looked it up huge difference hey. 4 big salmon is a lot of fillets but those trout are the tastiest

[@radj4719]

Love your cat what sort of diet is he on? Oh let me guess the fish diet😄

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Yes Rad j you guessed it the fish diet. Mitzy is now 18 and going well, she is a lovely cat. Thanks mate.

[@leannekudahl2432]

oh yeah Mitsy; this isn't your first rodeo is it hun. :D
