“ Most Aussies turn their nose up at the thought of tucking into an Australian Salmon when there is a plethora of other table fish to choose from. Any of these people that tried this dish today would have to eat their words” Ryan Doyle.
Where You Got It From is a series that hones in on the best practices to ensure a superior harvest. To respect any fish taken from the water for a feed. For a long time, I was under the influence that the best time to catch a fish was immediately after catching one. Often leading to neglecting the fish that I had just landed and planned on taking home. If your goal is to fish for food, then it is okay to take 5 minutes out of the prime bite time to do the job the right way. Ryan was able to dispatch his fish in under a minute with experience, you can too.
This is a special episode because we look at changing Australian fisho’s cultural ideas around Australian salmon. One of the lowest-eating grade fish out of the ocean but also one of the most abundant and fun to catch. Imagine if we started eating Aussie Salmon? The pressure on other species would be reduced.
