    Still feeding the snapper in upper Waitemata from the kayak. Got a couple of pannies for about a dozen throwbacks. Kahawai turned up when I was nearly out of bait. Caught a couple. Good fighters and nothing wrong with it in the pan.

    Pretty good raw fresh.
    Maybe I'm just fussy but I didn't like it much cooked.

    Made a detour on the way home from kids sport today to have a scratch in the mud/sand.



    Didn't take too long to get a feed (was kicking myself that i hadn't thrown in the drag net and wet suits this morning tho)



    There are a few different stories i have heard about how to make them spit out the sand. However there is basically no sand inside a cockle. All the grit comes off the outside of the shell when you steam them open. So the cleaner you can get the outside of the shell the better.

    Best method i have found is to agitate them vigorously in a sink with water. When the water dirties empty it. Repeat the process until the shells are clean. Very tasty


    @JessicaChen this is what your looking for in that stinky papatowai mud, next time your down those ways
