    Got a couple meals of him, crayfish scrambled eggs, Maine style lobster rolls and a creamy tail pasta with homemade garlic bread. Bloody ideal

    I still haven't replaced all my gear.
    Plan to do it this summer.
    Haven't had a feed of cray for ages.

    Crayfish scrambled eggs... I'm drooling...

    I grew up eating crays, as grandad was a pro Fisher. I never thought of them as being a luxury item until I was about 25. Even now, I'll still go for the big legs over the tail, but still like the tail..

    But crab or cray, and egg - the perfect mix for breakfast lunch or dinner. Or snack. With a sprinkle of chilli......

    Yeah bit of a pain in the arse to pick but heaps of meat in the legs and knuckles of a cray that size, way more tender than the tail

    Any word on the biomass there? Been closed for ages.

    The old scollies get hammered though aye, wouldn't be surprised if we don't see some big method changes in the relatively near future
