It was friggin terrible, rubbery, very hard to chew didn't taste that great at all

Todays Paua will be pattied in the normal way

Either drown in cold fresh water for a day and then shuck, or throw whole live paua in boiling water for a minute then straight into cold water to stop the cooking process. Then shuck them as usual. They will be tender as, you'll be able to push your finger through them. Thinly slice and make a curry with them. Amazing.
