How Much Fish Do You Eat

[Mattk76]

Will eat once a week at the moment, have only had the boat 6 months, but now just starting to get enough to feed the family once per week.

Consistently improving now being able to get a feed instead of just a cold & fuel bill.

Also wouldnt consider buying from shops, apreciate the fish that i been catching way to much to waste money buying would rather fill up the boat & hit the water

We'd eat it around 3 times a week. We have invested in one of those Sunbeam Foodsaver vacuum pack things so a good offshore trip sets us up for many months.
There is one non-vacuum packed fillet in the freezer that we keep meaning to give away -- we're spoiled now and don't want to eat it!

Never.

Whole family is allergic (Wife & Kids) but man, do we enjoy chasing them, catching them and letting them go.

Wow Chris - bummer!! How allergic are they? - What happens? I can't eat/touch prawns anymore (used to eat them by the bucket full) Throat swells up,
Face swells, can't breathe - basically an end of life event. Also a bummer.

My wife does that swell up thing, the rest of us get massive migraines and throw up everywhere for hours. We can touch them, clean them etc, just can't ingest them.

Crazy thing is I used to scoff it down until I reached 15.

Usually twice a week. Keep a couple of packs in the freezer (no more as fresh is best) for the lean times. I won't buy fish from the supermarket.

Cheers,

I usually eat fish about once or twice a week

[johnny roger]

After reading recent posts bout releasing fish,killing fish etc. it got me wondering how regularly we all eat fish. We have a feed of whiting once or maybe twice(rarely) a week. i guess roughly 500 gms so thats only about 25 kg fish/year for the family.Do other ppl eat heaps more. this being the case three or four big cod,jew or barra would feed us all year. I guess some people eat a lot more.

Chewy,
we are about the same. might have fish on the table once a week some times. but i think that is because we dont quite know how to cook them. i mean bbq fish gets a bit boring after a while, and thats basically all we know what to do with them. i dont like baked fish and that sort of stuff. grilled or fried for me. but like i say, bbq with lemon and pepper gets a bit boring.

There are plenty of good cooking ideas in the Recipes section of this forum, I have gotten a few good ideas from other Ausfishers. I never knew there were so many ways to cook fish!

[johnny roger]

thanks for that nic. will endeavour to try out more recipes.
