ABOUT Karumba Prawns
Fiery sunsets, salty water and a roaring fishing trade are in the DNA of Karumba Banana Prawns. Wild-caught in the beautiful northern Australian waters of the Gulf of Carpentaria, Karumba Prawns are sought after by all who love good Aussie seafood.
You'll find Karumba Prawns in the kitchens of world-renowned Chefs, and sizzling away on backyard barbecues; Karumba Prawns truly are "The Peoples' Prawn."
What makes them even better is Karumba Prawns are the sustainable choice for banana prawns. Austral Fisheries catch them in the MSC Certified, sustainably-managed Northern Prawn Fishery.
They're also the world's first carbon neutral certified banana prawn. Certified under the Australian Government's 'Climate Active' Carbon Neutral Program, you can be assured Karumba prawns are thoughtfully caught with the planet in mind.
I eat 'em almost every day. Thank you.
These are beautiful wild caught prawns.
Namaste.
Spent nearly a yr onboard KFV boat the gove Scorpio in 1982, great times but we earned every cent we made . If you didnt fit in you didnt make it, got to be able to adapt.
Why didn't they show the catch.....Because of the bi
catch is bullshit.
Gee this gives me itchy feet! I saw a few old salts on board. I'd love to have a crack now that I'm at the back end of a life time in shipping but never been to sea!
The united states is being flooded with imports pond shrimps. As a fisherman i agree with wild caught shrimps.nice video felt like home
Aussie Prawns.
Good times in my life doing this for a living. Tricky
RIP Mathew Carreras
hope to join them soon..
Brought back memories when I was on board chasing tiger prawns
On the northern side of Mornington Island is a bar...a beer selling hut
Walk down the dirt track, south, behind it for 500-750 m and you will notice a tree appears to be in the middle of the track
Where the track turns right (West) there is a can of coke buried at the base of that tree
Amazing, Hard Work but a time of my life I'll never forget working out there. You are champions
Great video :-)
We buy a frozen 5kg box and crumb them up at our leisure. Its great to see this film on where our food comes from and that it is in good hands.
Much by-catch?
My very big wish in my life is, , to tour the places that i love, , i hope someday, , god will provide it to me💖
On a Raptis boat, 1993, we hauled up a yacht tender in the net
Sad the % crew gets paid on all trawlers works out to be such a low hourly rate when all hours of refit / steaming /not catching are takin into account.
How much do you reckon a deckhand would make in a season?
'' They are one of the tastiest Prawns that one could get '' - Darn straight they are. Im retired now, Spent my time up there back in the 80's. Stay safe guys... kill the pig!
Gosh they are delicious. Eat them every week. Thank you to all at Karumba Prawns for harvesting them from the wild.
Great film guys. We are proud to be partnering with you on such an important project!

My father told me stories of when they first started trawling the gulf and finding banana prawns and not being able to sell them because the didn’t go red when they cooked them stories of trying to cook them with red food colouring or stain them after cooking. All because people wouldn’t accept prawns that were not red
Wow that's crazy
@@deanfulford69 my old man had lots of interesting stories from those days, was no market for squid so just dumping whole cod ends of calamari over the side, full nets of mud crabs off west irianjia, first discovery of the endevorii or debs as he called them, dad was a full master mariner not just a skipper and brilliant navigator he used to lead the southeast Qld fleet up the coast to do the gulf season. I loved spending Christmas school holidays on the trawlers based out of Karumba or T I
They are magnificent in a garlic prawn risotto on a bed of radish micro-greens.
So that's where Banana prawns come from.
you would use drones now, to survey for mud boils,? yes ?
Cant go high enough or cover the distance that a manned aircraft can. They will work but you would be going backwards.
@@kizzjd9578 Thats not entirely correct mate. There are a lot of long range Commercial Drones available to suit a specific purpose. Of course they use them, It beats sitting up top in the A frame looking for boils like the old days.
@@Top-Jimmy yes there are but unless your drone is larger than 1m3, you cant go further than 500m before you lose sight. Out on the water, bvlos and evlos cannot be achieved. I highly doubt the boat crew have their aviation irex license or trained on type rated rpas over 25kg.
@@kizzjd9578 Who needs a 25kg Quad to find em? 400ft ALT is ample if you're playing by the rules anyway, Especially if your paired up.
I've been up there since 1985, Things were a lot different. Retired two years back. A mate of mine kills it using a couple of drones.
