Mudcrab Catch and Cook Northern Territory

  • My mission over the next few days is to use crab pots to catch some Gulf Mudcrabs, then bring them back home to cook. And although this is a Mudcrab catch and cook episode, we're also going to find some time for fishing as well.
    It's scientific name is Scylla Serrata... But they are more commonly known as the Giant Mudcrab.
    And here in the Gulf of Carpentaria mudcrabs find ideal conditions for living, feeding and breeding.

    Loving the vids mate. On a serious note don’t ever think you have to give up time with the family mate. Filming and editing is time consuming but we understand if you need a break every now and again. Family’s number 1 mate

      I completely agree mate. Whole heartedly… but I’ve put myself into a position where my wife and I have invested everything into this UA-cam channel, and if I don’t consistently upload UA-cam videos, I don’t get paid.
      And the videos I make that get all the views are down in the gulf.
      So for the time being, I need to sacrifice a bit of family time. But I definitely make up for it when I’m home. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    Another beauty Mikey. To paraphrase Andy, keep 'em comin' along. Yeah bastard fish spikes. Had an infected thumb from a black spot tusky spike in WA. Soaked it a few times in hot water and dettol, as hot as you can stand it (which ends up near boiling) and got an eighth inch long spike out from beside my thumb nail, eleven days later back in FNQ. Cleared up in 48 hours then.

      It’s such a mind game this bloody UA-cam thing… the last 2 videos I’ve uploaded I put soooo much effort into. And they are my worst performing videos this year. It’s all good though. Just means I need to work harder. 💪🏼👍🏼🤠

      ​@@MikeyCunninghamFishingYou can never tell hey Mikey?? As long as you still enjoying making them that's all that matters, and i think that is the case as it comes through the Vlogs buddy. As you rightly pointed out, it's costly though.
      Don't forget to throw in your prep time for a trip, and snippets of your travel to and from King Ash. Even mods on your trailer/boat, around town back in Darwin etc etc. I follow ATC, and I love all his added extras he throws in.
      Keep pushing mate. 🍻

    • @MikeyCunninghamFishing
      @MikeyCunninghamFishing  Місяць тому +1

      I’m so big, I always make the fish I catch look way smaller than what they actually are. This bloody cod was like holding a bag of cement powder. And it’s full weight coming down on my thumb like that… crikey it hurt.
      I didn’t notice it too much at the time… but looking back at the footage afterwards I could see when I was “testing” and squeezing the crabs, I couldn’t use my thumb. Haha. Too excited in the moment to worry about the pain.

    Mikey, you hang out with the all time Territory Mud Crabbers in King Ash, Mad Mullet and the likes and why have they not taught you to grab crab and tie them off cuzzy Bro ? 🤪 I'm pissing myself laughing Legend, in a way not taking the piss from you. Bloody things get angry buy hey.

    • @MikeyCunninghamFishing
      @MikeyCunninghamFishing  Місяць тому +2

      Haha. Yea mate. It’s a bit of a running joke that I have purposely neglected from learning how to tie crabs. It’s the worst part of their job. Sitting there for an hour or 2 after work sitting there tying crabs. Wrecking your back.
      So if I knew how to tie… I would be obligated to jump in and help. Haha.
      I’ve told Ash I will learn in 2025 if it’s a good crabbing season.

      I don’t get sick while moving. Both as driver and passenger. Just when we are sitting there still. Usually. But sometimes not. It’s so weird.

      There is only one mate. They are based at King Ash Bay but they are called “Borroloola Houseboats”. There used to be another company, but Borroloola Houseboats bought both of their boats.
      You can find them on Facebook, they have a website too I reckon. If you contact them, you’ll speak to Kylie, Scotty or Damo… I can highly recommend. 👍🏼
