We never freeze fish. We made the promise when we moved here that we would never freeze another fish.
I just had a bit of an empty out of the freezer to make some space. The recipe for good salami. The leg of a rank stag...preferably taken in the roar. I leg of fat wild pork, 3kg of mutton mince and roughly the same amount of assorted duck, pheasant, swan, goose, peacock and pheasant breasts. So we will now see how the local butcher goes with it, hes never made salami before but last month he made the best sausages we ever ate out of the recipe above

Are your referring to catching flounder on the rod. Now that has got to be fun but I havnt done it yet. Every time I get the urge to go out and try it I cant find any worms. Its usually fine hot weather at the time and the earthworm population has disappeared somewhere or other.

As for rod fishing other species, I have a mate with a boat and we visit the mussel farm for a fish about once a week. There is only about one month of the year that we dont catch as many good fish as we need and thats (july) usually.

Sore hands from filleting everyone fish for them is the problem around here. I smoke a lot of these fish for the folk in the bay.
