@@outdooradventureswithbakes4857 hahahaha thats funny. It's easier to light the trangia with a match than a lighter, but the matches were a bit damp. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice! If put those yabby tails in a toasty toaster on the camp fire or stove with some cheese and garlic powder they are amazing! Trust me, you'll love them!

Thank you so much my friend. Lots of people here are too scared to have the jab, but I am more than willing to role my sleeve up. This business of going in and out of lockdown makes it very hard for me to make content for my channel.
@@robbiefishing your welcome robbie... I had both doses way back in the spring... and apart from a bit of a tail and so e webbing between the toes I think I'm ok.. haha 🤪... Good luck mate you made a great decision...best wishes to you and the family.. 😎🇬🇧
nice work Robbie I've only caught a few yabbies in winter and I was surprised as you were when I caught them. From my personal experience, i like the gas burners because it takes ten years to cook things on trangias.
Looked awesome robbie. i reckon thats the best way to dispatch crustaceans, i use a simmilar method when i catch mudcrabs (except i forgo the slurry and just put them in the freezer or esky for a few hours) It allows u to get all the guts out and i think it gives a much better quality meat.
@@mickssouthaussieadventures1631 haha Mick, i think because in my heart I expected to catch nothing, I wasn't impatient. Had I known that I was in with a chance I would have checked them sooner. 🤣🤣🤣
That was great, cant wait to try it this way especially for removing the pipe. I love my trangia! I brought one after watching your videos and it's great.
Thanks so much mate. I love my Trangia. I have a few different stoves but this is my favourite. My wife bought me this for my birthday a few years back.
Great one rob, good to see you put in that bit of info at the end with poo shoots I'll have to put my crays in ice water mum was flipping when I had them in the freezer
I remember years ago we went away bream fishing and left live yabbies in a small bucket of water outside overnight. Next morning the water was frozen solid. I thought there goes the live bait but as the day warmed up, back to life they came. Still amazes me today.
Haha thats funny. I had a similar experience. It was a really hot summers day at Lake William Hovell, so I three a heap of crushed ice in the water to keep my yabbies cool. Haha I killed them all and was really disappointed. When we were leaving later that day I went to tip out all of the dead yabbies. I opened the eski and found then all alive and walking around fine. Haha
Brilliant video Robbie. I have just picked up a net and will be dropping it a few times in ACT soon. Definitely very cold up here at the moment. Plenty to learn!

Hey Chris I am so sorry to hear that mate. I really hope that things turn around for you soon. As a sufferer of depression myself, I know how it feels. Hopefully better times ahead for you my friend.
Very interesting and instructional video on yabbies Robbie. I never knew about removing the middle flap and the poo line by removing the tail prior to cooking. I always put mine in the freezer for 30 minutes though. I just caught 25 big yabbies in the back water at blanchetown in one opera house pot using half a hamburger patty plus cat food I put in the mesh bag with it. Left it overnight and could not believe my eyes next morning. I only had one pot, but got an unbelievable feed 👍🏼
It's the start of crawfish season here in Louisiana, we will be eating them three times a week until June. Companies have their spring parties have nothing but crawfish boils. Love crawfish!
Some nice winter yabbies there Robbie and an excellent catch & cook. I’ll have to go and checkout the farm damn once we are out of lockdown here in SA and see if I can get myself a taste! On a brighter note (pun intended) I just ordered an Olight Perun 2 with your code, it’s going to help with making some good night videos come summer. Take care and look forward to the next video! 🍻
Thank you so much mate. You poor buggers have got it even tougher than us. This spot is 4.9km from my place. LOL No jokes, I checked it on the map. You will love the Perun 2 headlamp mate. Olight have sent me all kinds if torches. In fact I have an olight review tomorrow night, and my favourite out of all of them is the Perun 2 headlamp.
I couldn't help but laugh when you lit the match with a cigarette lighter hahaha. Well done mate I was as surprised as you were that you caught some at this time of year! I could live off 100% yabby meat I reckon lol
I've watched a few Robbie videos now and i have some observations to make. You seem to be puzzled by some locations yielding while other spots fished at the same time do not. I think this is for two reasons, in west aus crustaceans (including yabbies) tend to congregate at the inlet to the water body during dryer times so different ends of dams yield differently. Also yabbies congregate where the cover is best, fallen trees in the water provide many hiding spots while a rock on the bottom has less so it makes sense that you will catch more around the tree.
Hey Robbie, love your videos. On the dispatching technique. I had a look at the RSCPA website and it seems you should also "split" the head of the yabbies (or lobsters) after chilling them. The "Unacceptable killing method" section reiterates it should be split: "Separating the abdomen (tailpiece) from the thorax - that is, tailing - or removing tissue, flesh or limbs while the animal is still alive (including when it is insensible) and before destroying the front and rear nerve centres (crabs) or chain of nerve centres (lobsters)." Cheers, mate
Looks like a very nice snack. Hope you are staying safe and glad you're taking advantage of the health opportunities available (I've booked my shot, but on a waiting list in Brisbane)
Thanks mate. They were beautiful. I booked on, and had no idea which jab I would get until I got there. I was happy that I was going to re rice Pfizer, but to be honest I would have happily had the Astra Zeneca if they wanted me to. I would have ran the gauntlet. LOL
Your fortunate you can fish in the lockdown. In South Australia, fishing isn't recognised as exercise during the lockdown and we can only exercise 2.5 km from our home.
In the bush I always have salt and have never cooked yabbies without them, catching in Winter is unheard of, and the other thing is their tails and claws looked full of meat, loved this but need salt but that's just me. Keep them coming.
Hahaha thats me through and through. LOL Admitedly, I usually use salt and lemon and often vinegar. I just wanted this one to be quite "raw" as it would be out the bush if you know what I mean.
i wonder if its the same 4....mate your killing me lmao....ps i wouldnt of thunked either at this time of year lol fantastic. love the apron you wear it well lol. lighting the match with the ciggy lighter...lmao..... brilliant with the poo line mate ive been cooking yabbies for 40 years and today i learnt something new. cheers robbie one of your best vids yet. have a great night mate :)
Hahahaha thanks. The bloody matches seemed a little damp. LOL I reckon the apron makes me look fat. Then again,.so does every single shirt that I own..and every camera angle. 🤣🤣🤣
Love it! Your yabby videos are my favourites! Could I make a request that you do a video on what you look for in new bodies of water when scouting new yabby areas? I am trying to find some places near me, but have struck out so far!
WOW so hungry right now. I wonder if you would have gotten the same outcome if you used goodos instead. Still can't wait to catch and cook my first one. You're a legend Robbie.
Robbie mate can you explain the difference between your nets in this video and the opera house nets? Just that they look similar. Is it just a smaller hole so bigger animals can't get in?
Hi Austin, that is one difference. These nets meet the size requirements with both the nets, and the funnels. Opera House nets are over sized, and the funnels are too big. They are a death trap for many of our native wildlife.
Actually those yabby look a lot like Louisiana crawfish which are dark red and those claws look more like lobster claws, but according to a study by LSU purging the crawfish in a salt water bath can extend the days in containment before boiling by days which is cleaning the poop shoot out at the same time!
Howdy mate, what’s your thoughts on contaminated waterways and eating Yabbys out of anywhere. How come Jindabyne and Eucumbene have yabbys in them , it’s always freezing up there?. Great videos 👍
Thanks mate. I'm no expert in water pollution, but I have eaten yabbiesxout of some pretty questionable places. LOL When in doubt, spak them in fresh water water a few days. I've never fished the Snowy mountains lakes, but I do know that Lake Dartnoith also has a lot of big yabbies in it. Personally (just my thoughts), the Deeper water has different thermal ranges. In winter the deep water is warmer and sheltered from the cold, and in summer the shallow water is warmer. In July, the water in the farm dams in low lying Ares is probably a lot colder than the deep water in Lakes.
I'm central West nsw, it gets bloody freezing here in winter and we get yabbies all year round. Cold weather's a myth mate. I find they move a bit deeper , but still plenty.
I was in a butcher shop in Castlemaine oneday and a customer walked in and asked if the butcher had any venison for sale he said"Nah you will have to go back to Toorak for that we only sell cow in here. "
@@ba.skidderLOCKDOWN Thanks so much mate. I have heard about it, and have done it with redfin with a mate once, but this was the first time that I have done it with yabbies and I was very impressed.

I've watched a few Robbie videos now and i have some observations to make. You seem to be puzzled by some locations yielding while other spots fished at the same time do not. I think this is for two reasons, in west aus crustaceans (including yabbies) tend to congregate at the inlet to the water body during dryer times so different ends of dams yield differently. Also yabbies congregate where the cover is best, fallen trees in the water provide many hiding spots while a rock on the bottom has less so it makes sense that you will catch more around the tree.
Hey Robbie, love your videos.
On the dispatching technique. I had a look at the RSCPA website and it seems you should also "split" the head of the yabbies (or lobsters) after chilling them.

I have eaten yabbies from all types of waterways and never been sick. If I was concerned, I would throw them into some fresh water for a few days to clean them up.
You guys call them crawfish
Nice work Robbie, didn't throw any nets in during winter cause you said they didn't bite lol
Haha They usually don't mate. LOL
All good, did go and get some Crayfish before lockdown kicked in at least, can't wait to get out soon on the boat
