Your right about yabbies being better than prawns mate, they just have that sweeter kind of taste, also spot on about the claws being the best meat...just a shame they arent bigger! Also a huge pat on the back mate for taking the time and effort to ensure they were dispatched humanely. Well done.

Yabs are nicer than prawns because you cook them fresh. All water life deteriorates by the hour once dispatched and out of the water. Yabs and Fresh Water Crays are kept alive till you cook them. But live caught prawns are hard to beat but we don't have that luxury, large freshwater shrimp are good eating though. And you will get one more session in if you have the time, going to be hot again next week. I used to find St. Patricks Day about the end of the season with the really cool nights starting to set in, but that was never set in stone, nature always throws us curve balls. But you have had a good season.

If you had some tongs or a slotted spoon you could scoop the cooked bits out and into the other pot with ice then keep using the already hot water in the first pot. Would have saved some cooking time, but maybe not a ton. I've had days where we needed crab boilers to handle the number of crays we had. Some nights we'd pull up 400+ redclaw. They breed like flies and are invasive here so there's no bag limits. A sprinkle of pepper and some butter on bakery fresh crusty loaf.......mmmmmmmmmmm.

Sydney Fish Market would be your best bet. Or, a good retail outlet my be able to get some in for you. But they are a delicacy, don't go wasting them in pasta, or cooking them is sauces or flavoured butters. Leave all that for the cheaper stuff. Good fish/crustaceans don't need any flavourings, when you see something cooked in some sort of sauce, it's usually rubbish.

It's around midnight here in SA and I'm hungry. About the salt etc, would it work if you cooked the yabbies in water with a little bit of salt and vinegar or would that be a different taste again? I looked up the local fishing regs and it looks like carp and redfin both have to be disposed of when caught. I reckon I might have a trip down to Mannum some time soon. The carp can go to fertiliser and redfin to the plate, assuming I can catch something. Seeya later mate.😂
