jasepom Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Having been to many a chippie in Melbourne just wondered what the best fish and chips are that members have had. Think there so much variety here it really is hard to pick one but my favourite has to be blue grenadier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight7 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 orange roughy is nice and of course barramundi. Can't go past flathead tails though as far as I'm concerned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest40285 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 To much choice for sure, but Love Red Snapper and flathead, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johndoe Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Flathead for me with coral trout and mackerel (cooked after skinning), next. Woolies has got imported flathead on at 9.99 kilo this week so I'm gonna try it to see if it's different to the native species Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calNgary Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 We are currently having 'home caught and cooked' shark and i was quite surprised how nice it was, infact i much prefer it to the Barra that Aussies seem to rave about. Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest66881 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Did you catch it yourself, and how did you cook it please (sorry for all the questions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yes hubby and son caught them (it only took 5 years of trying,lol), they have to be bled right on catching and put into iced water straight away. I filleted them (they caught 2) and we did the traditional home made beer batter with some pieces and shallow fried the other with some lemon,garlic and herbs. The beer battered were my favorite,lol. This is my daughter with one shortly before it was filleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest66881 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Nice pup too, i imagined bigger shark but never caught one so. Thanks for info sounds cool, just need a boat and some gear now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 They have to be under (i think) its 1.5 mtrs or you cannot legally take them. I think its to do with the amount of mercury or something in bigger sharks. Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 From the chip shop snapper definitely. I do miss the fresh fish places in Perth - just buy my fish at the supermarket now, but it's more than made up for by the smoked fish here and the price!

gee13 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Dhufish and Spanish mack are the ones the local fishos and spearos drool over. Harlequin fish is also a real treat here in WA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausborn Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Snapper is my fish of choice, flathead and coral trout. When we catch snapper , love cooking it whole on coals in the back yard wrapped in foil filled with all fav garnishing to flavour it. Just melts in your mouth. Side dish of fresh mud crabs tops the meal. Yummmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobj Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Not in any particular order; coral trout, mackerel (spanish, broadbar, schoolie and spotty), red emperor, golden snapper, bluey (blackspot tuskfish), mangrove jack, barramundi, pearl perch and WA dhu fish (both close rellies) and jewfish (mulloway). And must be self caught... Cheers, Bobj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
