    While camping To get the best out of your goldens

    Put in a seperate esky , cover with ice ,leave for 12 to 24hrs this helps to set the fat .
    Fillett then skin , trim off all the fat . its easy to see now , cut into small pieces , pepper and salt , cook on BBQ , splendid

    Nice recipe Pete,

    But the best way at a campsite that i have ever tasted yella's is lightly seasoned, splash of olive oil, and then wrapped three or four times in good old aluminium foil. Then place it on some fresh coals from the fire, leave on for only a couple of minutes (depending on size of fish and heat of coals) turn fish over! When coocked you have a ready made plate to enjoy your succulent golden perch!

    Bones just fall straight off the flesh!

    Yes definatly depends on size mate.
    Fisho has the right idea ( gidday fisherman). Foil is the way to go, but if they are over about 2lb. Fillet them and 'SKIN' them as the layer of fat inside the skin tends to make the taste 'Muddy' in my opinion.


    Fisho are you up this way this season, not a lot of fruit about mate. Might see ya down the corner. (Cricketers) its the only pub left now Coe's (the Royal) closed its doors last week.

    By the way couple of mates have landed some nice 'yella's' behind Rumbalara if anyone's interested.

    Definately got to skin them digger!

    Old bloke showed me how to skin a fish about 10 years ago, and i've been skinning my fish ever since! Great way to get rid of all the scales, and they come up so well when you do it right!
