What's up guys, so yesterday, I decided to keep a bream for myself just to see what actually killing and preparing your catch was like (I do customer service in a seafood shop).
This one went for about 28cm
I tried my hand at scaling, cleaning, and fileting as well but I did a pretty **** job of it since it was my first time.
So yeah, that night I had the bream with some broccoli and fried rice for dinner, and it was actually surprisingly nice
Anyway, I wanted to know what you guys thought of eating out of the Brisbane River, especially in recent times following the floods. There seems to be conflicting opinions concerning this; some people wouldn't poke a fish with a 6 foot pole, while others are keeping just about every legal fish they catch. I live in the Toowong/West End region which I've heard was a pretty dirty reach of the river but I'm no expert after all. Any comments are appreciated
