[@maJEZtic]

You are and absolute legendary gem to Australia Robbie i love your content it always put a smile on my face and a positive feeling inside even when i am suffering a bad day like today

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much for your kind words mate. I really hope that you have a better day tomorrow. It all gets a bit hard some days doesn't it!

Thanks so much for your great feedback mate. I bet she could do a better job at cooking them than I can though. LOL

[@coopersfishingadventures]

YABBY CATCH AND COOOOOOK. Lovely Robbie. The yella I cooked was bloody lovely, I just had it. Hopefully the video will be up soon, whether it’s today or tommorow. Thanks Robbie, have a good one.😂

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much for your kind words Sheena. 🙏 I hope you're having a wonderful weekend.

[@waynegiles2873]

What I like about your videos they down to earth and its something everyone can afford to do instead of super expensive fishing trips which most videos are nowda6s keep up the great shows mate

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much for your kind words Wayne. I couldn't film those expensive trips even if I wanted to.... Because I can't afford it. LOL 😂

[@waynegiles2873]

@robbiefishing I know that feeling where I live it's mainly beach fishing but I love yabbying and river fishing

[@michael-fb7ps]

Great video mate I will have to try that way of cooking yabbies lucky I went and caught a few today cheers for the video mate

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Michael. These were beautiful. I preferred them like this over the crumbed ones that I cooked last time.

[@michael-fb7ps]

I will be sure to give it a go mate looks great

[@imo8628]

Yummo Robbie, they looked delicious. I hope you didn't forget your salad roll, could have made a nice yabby & salad roll, ha ha ha , good job Bro. cheers buddy, take care and stay safe. 👍

hahaha Thanks Grumpy. They sure are amazing tucker mate.

[@RKJFishing]

That looked delicious mate, I'm very much looking forward to getting some yabbies for myself after watching that. Looking at that creek I reckon there's some monsters in there! Well done on your feed

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, I reckon there is too. The best thing about it being mid October is that we've still got 6 months of yabbying ahead of us. Haha

[@Gunnoandhennez]

Great video Robbie there was a fishing tournament on near me today I went down and the bite window you always talk about is true it was proved today I didn't catch anything but the people next to us caught ten.

[@robbiefishing]

WOW mate, it's so frustrating when that happens. Haha

G'day Robbie, Great video. I caught a dozen big nippers at Crusoe #7 res in Bendigo. Had em on GF day in pepper,butter,garlic n rosemary straight off the bush.Great way to eat inland prawns. As you say ......Absolutely beautiful. Cheers Mate 👍

G’day Robbie, I’ve just come back home after staying with family in the Riverina, lovely place. Great video and well done mate. The old catch and cook is always great 👍🏼

[@papeep2694]

Your catch and cooks always leave me hungry. We are into our hunting seasons here so no water time. Don't want to foul up anyone's hunt. But spring will come after the holidays and the crays will be a bit bigger. Thank you for sharing your day by the water.

Omg mate not again… Cooking videos when I am starving lol. Love a good feed of yabbies old chap. Ps is that a sea to summit frying pan you’re using??

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Camels. Yes mate, I am pretty sure that it is. It's a ripper, but quite expensive. Sorry about making you hungry. haha Sorry not sorry. LOL

[@cointector]

I am always hungry.. I am getting 1 of those pans for my moto camping adventures 😀

[@CamBill_ROBLOX]

Good one mate looked a good feed too👍👍👍👍👍👍 we have closed season and closed waters for Mary river cod here in qld the river I fish is closed until end of October

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Cam. That is very interesting. Even when the river re-opens I think the Mary River cod are totally protected aren't they? Or am I wrong?

[@CamBill_ROBLOX]

@@robbiefishing not sure and my fisheries app isn’t working they do get Murray cod over the divide and some dams I think the rivers have similar closures out there

[@chriscoyne4827]

I really flinch when I see you put grass in like that just waiting t you see ouch haha. Thats some great yabbies mmmmmmm yummy

[@robbiefishing]

Haha thanks mate. I will know all about it if one grabs me. LOL

[@chriscoyne4827]

​@@robbiefishingI have a big night ahead of me catching up all the videos I've missed I just came back from blowing dam trout fishing

[@baileyh9142]

Hay very good video me and my mates caught 30 carp in the middle of Numurkah. If you want to catch a lot of carp that is a good spot.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. I am actually heading over that way to fish at Nathalia in a couple of weeks. I crossed the Broken Creek near Katamatite on Friday and it was high and filthy, so there is some very dirty water coming your way mate, if it isn't there already. My family and I went to Numurkah back in winter to photograph the bat colony. Have you seen it? WOW While we were there, the creek was super low and we watched the spoonbills picking off carp one after another. haha I wonder what they use to eat before carp came along? LOL

[@carlm6334]

Woo Hoo yabby catch n cook

[@chriscoates2399]

Wish I'd known de veining 45 + yrs ago , what a great technique thanks for that

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, it only works when you kill them before cooking such as this video, but is an absolute game changer when it comes time to shell them.

[@thesrlegend618]

Robbie mate, at 21:25 you accidently dropped a yabbie claw onto the ground without noticing. I kept catching glimpses of it afterwards and just bugged me something shocking haha.

[@robbiefishing]

hahahaha Sorry about that. I actually dropped 2 tails as well which I was so annoyed about. I should have taken a small table with me.

[@captainfrank01]

Nice feed!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Frank. One of these days I will catch a heap of yabbies and cook them like this. A bulk cook up of Peppered Yabby Tails.

[@HoldinLong]

been watching your vids for years, realised I hadnt subscribed. LOVE YABBIES! as a kid I used to catch shrimp by sitting in the water and waiting for them to nibble me, I was the bait lol

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Haha It drives me mad when they come and walk all over my feet. LOL 🤣🤣

[@HoldinLong]

if you get down to SA I have some great secret spots@@robbiefishing

[@failedsamurai]

@robbiefishing i have these nets. I found that they rock over how they come factory tied on top. Tie the line one of the corners as it will drag better and not flip

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, what an excellent idea.

[@kristy-leeedwards6949]

😊 great 👍 catch and cook Robbie!! Thanks for sharing greatly enjoyed and appreciated. Hahahaha looks like you didn’t forget anything. 😊😊

[@robbiefishing]

haha Thanks so much Kristy. I didn't forget anything, but wish I had of taken a small table. Maybe next time I will do that!

[@brentonclarke]

Well you can’t get much fresher than that (unless you are going to try sashimi yabbies 😂) . Nice one Robbie

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. I reckon sashimi yabbies would have to come with a few health risks. Haha 😂

[@Justthatoneguy252]

Robbie I got two questions Where are you fishing? And how do you always find these good spots?

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, I am in outback NSW on this occasion. I won't say exactly where because I need to be mindful of the locals that probably treasure this spot. As for finding these spots, as I mentioned near the start of the video I am just driving around looking for places. I crossed a few bridges and really liked the look of this spot, so I gave it a try. This was actually the second spot that I tried. I tried another spot first and did not do any good. It is all trial and error.

[@geoffhunt6439]

In South Australia we can catch and release cod all year round in reservoirs. In rivers it catch and release from January to July.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Geoff. For some reason I thought it was open all year round statewide now. Leaving them open in lakes and closed in rivers makes sense to me, but catch and release only certainly doesn't. That is one step closer to a total ban. Even if they had a bag limit of 1 they should still be open, with top up stocking to compensate for fishing pressure.

[@kristy-leeedwards6949]

🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@peterclarey3007]

Hey Robbie, What do you think about the sea to summit frypan ? I’ve been looking at one but it maybe to thin and prone to buckling and probably can’t be used on a fire. Cheers Peter 🎣🍻

[@robbiefishing]

Hi Peter, I've only had it a few weeks. It's a great little frying pan, but it has warped a little bit in the centre. The centre has raised slightly, meaning any butter or oil moves to the sides. That could be because the burner that I'm using with it is very small and blasts heat to the centre. It's hard to imagine a pan that is so light the doesn't buckle and bend. Haha

[@TheGreatoutdoorsAndGourmetVic]

Aussie bush GOURMET!

[@robbiefishing]

Haha yep.

[@comeatmebro3229]

For South Australia Murray Cod fishing in the Murray river and Lakes Albert and Alexandrina is closed between 1st August to 31st December, outside of this time all Murray cod are catch and release only. you can however fish for Murray Cod in the reservoirs all year round but again it is strictly catch and release as Murray cod are a fully protected species in SA.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. I thought they completely scrapped the closed season all together when they banned the take of Murray cod? I could be wrong, and it seams too stupid for words, but I remember all of the flack the SA government copped when they announced there would be no closed season. You are the second person that has told me this so perhaps I am wrong.

[@pathogan632]

Yummo

[@lightningsfishingadventures]

Bugger about the 2 big ones but awesome catch and cook vid! 🙂

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Yeah I know right. I need to remember to take a rake with me to help lift them on a better angle.

[@nathanbruce6421]

I'm just wondering where you get them types of gas bottle from I've been looking for them I can get the long ones for the camping stoves but not for the gas bottle burner top

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, I bought mine at Adventure Camping and Fishing in Wangaratta. If you call them, they may be able to take a phone payment and post them. I'm not 100% sure, but I think they do.

[@nathanbruce6421]

@@robbiefishing thanks for that mate

[@Drew9]

just curious whats the purpose of putting grass in with the yabbies in the bucket?

[@robbiefishing]

Hi Drew, it stops the yabbies from killing each other, and also allows them to climb up and get oxygen from the air if they need to.

[@Reevesy95]

I’ve actually never seen that deveining technique before, gonna give it a crack next yabbie hunt

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, I don't think it works as well with cooked yabbies as it does with raw yabbies though. It is a great trick.

[@ironmaidentragic]

South Australia does have a closed season.

[@robbiefishing]

Are you sure? I thought they scrapped it last year?

[@geoffs8801]

robbie...it would have been more fun watching you catch them with string and meat👍👍but...thats because i remember the fun of it as a kid

[@PeterIshman]

Do you ever cook the head? We usually cook the head it has great juices.

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, no I don't know anybody here that does. I know in America that crawfish heads are eaten, but I've never heard of anybody eating the yabbys heads.

[@PeterIshman]

Give it a try. Boiling them whole adds flavor due to all the head fat content.

[@glentaylor8986]

i see now how you do the poo line how i explained to do it....... i don 't know if you knew or not but it makes it alot easyer than trying to cut it out with a knife

[@robbiefishing]

Sure does mate it easier mate. I definitely knew it, and have done it several times on this channel in older videos. I appreciate you offering your helpful tips though. Thank you. 👍👍

[@robbiefishing]

WOW sounds awesome, well done mate.

[@raymitchell4220]

Very interesting vid Robbie, I could almost taste your yabbies, in view of your Aussie laws re carp, have you tried cooking and eating them. I'd give it a go but here in the UK it's a big NO NO, laws say you can't and some of the carp boys would have your guts for garters but I know the Eastern European 'visitors' take anything and by any method including snagging, of course, they get away with it, take care and thanks, Norfolk, UK, Ray

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much for watching Ray. I know all about your "Carp boys". LOL They often call me every horrible name imaginable because I kill them. They don't understand our laws. LOL I have eaten a few mate, but they're pretty horrible. I have tried several ways. Filleted, and cooked in my Tandoor Oven is the nicest, but the bones are just horrendous. If if wasn't for the bones, I could eat it occasionally. They stink when filleting them, although once the skin is gone it's all good..

[@andrewelliott9228]

Quickly put the net back in, not a second to lose haha.

[@robbiefishing]

hahahaha I always say that. LOL

[@francesottewill2538]

[@geoffchandler8684]

Do yabbies pick up pollutants ? Some of the parks in Melbourne would be a bit sus I reckon

[@robbiefishing]

I honestly have no idea sorry mate. If I was concerned I would keep them alive in fresh clean water for a few days before cooking them.

[@alexanderwright9064]

haha Thanks mate. I hope you all go out and catch a lovely feed of yabbies just like this one.

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

The lures in the tacklebox would work well in saltwater as well. All Queensland fresh waters in the Murray-Darling Drainage Division have a Murray cod closed season - 1 August to 31 October. This closed season does not apply in Beardmore, Connolly, Cooby, Coolmunda, Glenlyon, Leslie and Storm King dams. There stricter limitations on the Mary River cod, which is listed as an endangered species. With big fines attached to them. Losing a couple of tails to the floor is a bit of a tragedy really. Sad stuff :(

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, I did not realise that. Thanks for clearing that up.

[@alexkasacous]

Trying to think of a better way to cook the yabby tails and i dont think there is. Might be nice to mix them into some nice pasta.

Do you yabbys taste like lobsters. Horsey sause sounds good for fish and yabbys.God bless.friends.
