Mate I wouldn't. His taste buds must be fucked if he is substituting condensed milk for coconut milk in raw fish.

Yes I do and I actually quite like it. Rushy I can not have coconut cream so I have to have my raw fish somehow so my taste buds are certainly not fucked

It's the head that's the problem

Laughing my arse off at that Maca49

Just don't knock the way I have my raw fish till you try it is all I am saying I can't have coconut cream because it upsets my guts.

I understand Hunter308. That is too bad.

Hunter you don't need to use Coconut cream ,apparently can make better raw fish with ordinary cream according to the Maori lady at work.Leave the coconut cream for the islanders .

A mate recently gave me a different mix of crumbs to try - 50% coconut and 50% panko crumbs. Anything like cream, coconut cream, mayo or aoli would do to get the crumbs to stick.

I have eaten raw paua and found it tasty but I just cant handle real sashimi.

Yeah. They are bloody tasty. Just have to get them on ice or in the mouth pronto. They spoil so fast!

He said "you'll fuckin know alright"!!
About 10 mins later the skippy on the end of my line was getting super agitated and then this bill and head and fish come flying out of the water and swallowed it whole, ripping the line out of my hands then taking line like a maniac.
My mate was up so he jumped in the chair and 55 mins later we had tagged and released our first Strippey!!
Buzzy as!
I myself am yet to get a marlin but have been skipper for a couple and present on many close but no cigars.
Nothing comes close to the mayhem that goes on ha ha ha!

Do you deep water fish much. if you are out the back of Motiti you might be able to pot some Scampi you might end up with the odd hag fish thou.

Stick them behind the pectoral fin and bled them before a slurry of ice. warm blooded buggers.

Scampi used to trawl for them from barrier to the mayor sometime to motiti that link will help you we used to get them from 250m to 450m along with a lot of other fish like Ling. Sauri i think is what you see is basicly a prawn i think.
