Thanks buddy after the worst two weeks on the road truck driving from Brisbane to Melbourne and back via Sydney and other places each run takes five days return to Brisbane had my phones stolen truck breakdown and other shit u always make me relaxed and happy. Cheers buddy I hope u relize how much we all love u and holly putting in the great work. Cheers from grumpy.
Thank you so so much for your amazing generosity Grumpy. You have just been robbed and here you are helping me and my family financially. WOW I'm so sorry about your terrible run on the road. My old man was a truck driver for almost 50 years. He was one of the first to drive for Fred Green when he started Greenfreight, working out of Myrtleford with just 3 or 4 trucks. He retired 6 months ago and now driver school buses instead. LOL He's almost 73 and just doesn't want to stop. I hope that the people that stole your phone get what they deserve. I hope Karma bites them on the ass mate, which I am sure it will.
@@robbiefishing try this one red FIN boned out heal for raw cray tails raw chop up fine blend together now ya have the best fritter out there crum deep frying or just the pan with veg added . Get ya native bees honey is brilliant with our fish.
Thanks so much Wayne. I've had a bad back for years, I didn't look after it as a young bloke and am paying for it now. I hope you have a ripper day mate. 👍👍
@@robbiefishing hahaha 🤣 that’s what makes a person stand out from others the fact that there is some humour and jokes you put in your videos that makes them stand out from other’s I think.
Hey robbie great video brother those are some big yabbies i would use rock salt instead of table salt and i would probably use a little bit of honey and chilli flakes or powder into the water while cooking them or i would cut them down the middle and i would wash them out and then i would soak them in a garlic butter for a few hours and then i would put them on bbq and while they are cooking i would pour my butter and garlic over the top of them while they cook
Ŕobbie Try a trip to some of the dams in Qld sometime. The Redclaw are much bigger and when my wife and I went after them we would get 1000 in a week😅before we left to come home. They are feral in many places so numbers are irrelevant. Not quite as good to eat as the old blue claw you are catching but ok. Have fun Haji-Baba😊😊😊😊😊
Yabbying is like a box of chocolates never know what your going to get i always find it exciting when you try a new location and you get good results, an expected adventure love the catch and cook never used lemon juice and vinegar before thank you
Thanks so much Peter. That's exactly what I love the most. Exploring. Holly and I went out and tried yabbying on a number of different table drains yesterday. We weren't filming, just exploring new places.
Awesome vid Robbie I am a great lover of the humble Yabby I couldn't tell you how many i've eaten them and Murray Crays are Delish ,and that footage of the Red Bellied Cobra LOL was fantastic and they are a cool snake.
Thanks so much mate, they really are an amazing snake aren't they. I've eaten a lot of yabbies too. To be honest, I prefer yabbies over crayfish. They're easier to peel and the meat is sweeter I reckon.
Hi Robbie, THis is how I was taught to cook crustaceans with the exception of using the water they lived in to cook them. I do this at home but i only blanch them. This makes them easier to peel. Once they are peeled i use them in stir frys or whatever I'm cooking. When I'm hungry outdoors i will rake a bed of coals out of the fire and throw them on, this is my absolute favourite way to cook yabbies, I love that smokey seafood flavour.
Good show as usual .I can't eat yabbies they taste muddy . The last big ones we caught we put in a bath with tank water and changed the water every 2-3 days. we put in some carrot to stop them killing each other. after 3 weeks their poop was orange and water clean. we cooked them and they still taste like mud. love ya work
Another top video to top off a rough day! Absolute legend you are Robbie, hope all the family and yourself a well mate, would be unreal to have a feed of yabbies with you. Thanks mate. 🍻🍻
Buddy you should look up the recipe for traditional red Maryland crab soup and substitue the crab meat with Yabby meat. I bet that would deeeeeelish! Great catch!
Gday rob Mate they looked delicious, if never thought of adding vinegar to the cooking broth for shell fish....but I'm going to give it a try.. that's made me hungry lol Thank you rob And all the best 😎🏴🎣
G,day Robbie hope you are well. Love your channel and your content especially yabbie fishing which is something I love to do also. I noticed on this video that you have a bad back I do also and when if flares up I get Bowen treatment and it fixes me up I swear by it. Might not hurt if you looked into getting some Bowen it can really improve the quality of your life because bad backs are no fun at all. But go to a therapist who only does Bowen and is highly qualified as there are a lot of fakes out there. Good luck and good health to you brother. And keep up the good work. Regards Noel.
Good size yabbies! You're doing great with the yabbying for this time of year. It's pretty much dead over here still. Really wishing summer would hurry up hahaha. Great vid Robbie 😁🦞👍
You’re making me bloody hungry mate! Do you know about the method of removing the poo line by twisting and pulling the middle tail flap before you cook them? Works a treat.
Thanks so much mate. To be honest I can't even remember where I got them. I actually bought them months ago, possibly even last year. LOL 🤣 I found them brand new still in their bags when I was cleaning my shed recently. It would most likely be either Adventure Camping and Fishing in Wangaratta or Anaconda in Albury, they're the 2 shops I frequent the most, and occasionally Trellys in Shepparton of I'm over that way. It will be one of them, unless it was Wangaratta Kmart. LOL This was a very unhelpful reply was it. LOL sorry mate.
100% agree with you on snakes, completely misunderstood. We have an American Black Snake that lives in the crawl space under our house, and sometimes she likes to come up top to say hello. My wife always freaks out while I simply pick the happy gal up and take her back out(She's not aggressive at all, just a big scaly puppy dog) . I used to call her Mr. Slithers(a play on the Simpson's character Mr. Smithers) but then realized she's a she, so I need a new name for her. I'm leaning towards Medusa, from Greek legends, but not sure that's a good name. Maybe I'll name her Naga.
Thanks mate. Haha that is so awesome. I would love to have a wild harmless snake living in my garden. We get a lot of that here with Blue Tongue Lizards. They live in the wild here and often because uncaged, wild pets.
Hi mate, yabbies are a warm water species and Cray are a cold water species. Right now they're both a little bit active but the crays will slow down as the water warms up and the yabbies will become active. Crays are much bigger and have a lot more laws around them to protect them.
As you been told stop abusing snake's 😂😂 was these the yabbies that gave you gasto haha. Well done one them i can tell they tasted beautiful like always
Hi Lynn, springers have been illegal for many years. When I was a kid in the 1980's, they were fully banned in Victoria and you could still use 4 in NSE but they were eventually banned in the early 1990's.
A trick my grandpa showed me for holding yabbs alive and fresh a lot longer - chuck em in a dam heshin bag with plenty of grass Theyll live indefinitely as long as the bags damp and wont fight
Haha thanks mate. I have a few videos where I do that. To be honest, I reckon they actually lose a bit of flavour doing that. I don't know why. We all have different tastes I guess. The biggest benefit of tailing them first is that I don't even up with a freezer full of shells because of I cook them at home I can tail them out the bush before I even come home..
No no no. Best way to cook fresh yabbies is directly on the coals shell on. A couple of minutes on both front and back. Try it. You'll never boil another yabbie.
Love the yabbying content Robbie. I have recently started my own RUclips channel called @coopersfishingadventures I started it because you inspired me to make it. Thanks Robbie happy fishing

It’s called a rolling boil in the cooking industry. They look bloody good to me! Yum!
Thanks mate, they were amazing.
Awesome mate! The toilet gag with the lemon juice cracked me up.
Hahaha thanks mate. I couldn't let that opportunity slip by. 😂😂😂
Looks like another good yabby season coming up mate.
Thanks Butch, I agree. I'm really excited for the next few months.
Best way to cook tabbies. Good work Robbie.
Thanks so much Mark, and I agree 100%. I enjoy cooking them different ways, but this is the best by a long way.

Thanks mate. You're not wrong. Kids love yabbying. I took my daughter yesterday.
I just found your channel and I love your personality! Big ups from Colorado, USA!
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend. I try not to take things too seriously here on my channel. Haha

Thanks so much Cam. 👍👍
Watching this and the Minister for War & Finance wanders by "We've got a bunch of yabby nets, right?" lol Might be a mission on the way.
Hahaha awesome. Good to see I am inspiring wives that watch me in their peripheral vision. 😂😂😂
Thanks for the cooking tip Robbie. I have a small dam on my property with some monster yabbies (very black yabbies) and had no idea how to cook them.
Thanks Richard. Good luck in your dam. I will earn you, these things are very nice. Once you eat one you will want them all the time. Haha
Great video Robbie 👌
Thanks so much Jack. 👍
Awesome!
Thanks mate.

Thanks mate. You are a part of a very elite group of people that don't like yabbies. Haha 😅😅 They're my favourite food.
Sooo good im taking a young person camping end of the month to a dam that has Redclaw hopefully i can teach them and get them a feed too
Thanks mate, that is so awesome. I would love to catch some redclaw. Good luck to you both mate.

Thanks mate, I must look that up.
I could taste that yabby mate. Bloody beautiful.
They were absolutely amazing mate.
Great vid robbie

Thank you rob

Thanks so much Mike. Yabbies are the nicest food source that God has given us I reckon, absolutely beautiful.

Thanks mate. I hope that you are going OK. 🙏
Good size yabbies! You're doing great with the yabbying for this time of year. It's pretty much dead over here still. Really wishing summer would hurry up hahaha. Great vid Robbie 😁🦞👍
Thanks so much mate. It's certainly been a very early start. I'm really excited about what the next few months might bring.
As an American I just learned the term Yabby and found this vid lol, we call Crawfish in Florida - crazy snake! the black/forest cobra?
Thanks mate. Haha The word Yabby seems to confuse a lot of American viewers. LOL
That was a Red Bellied Black Snake. 👍
Mud prawns delicious 🤤
They sure were mate, nicest food on the planet. Even nice than chocolate mousse or avacado on toast. LOL 🤣
You’re making me bloody hungry mate! Do you know about the method of removing the poo line by twisting and pulling the middle tail flap before you cook them? Works a treat.
Sorry about that. Haha Yep I sure do mate, I have actually used it in my videos a few times. It sure does work a treat.
OMG ... YUMOOO
Thanks Camels. Mate these things are even nicer than chocolate mousse I'm not kidding. AND..... they're healthy, but not very filling. Haha 😂
Hi Robbie, Just wondering where you got your new "BROWN Coloured" bait nets. videos are always entertaining and full of enthusiasm.
Thanks so much mate. To be honest I can't even remember where I got them.
I actually bought them months ago, possibly even last year. LOL 🤣 I found them brand new still in their bags when I was cleaning my shed recently.

This was a very unhelpful reply was it. LOL sorry mate.
Thanks Robbie you tried I did buy some from K-Mart which were green not sure how long they will last your brown ones look a better quality.
Love your content Robbie,hey what does the vinegar do?
Thanks mate. To be honest I just put it there to enhance the flavour. I love vinegar. Haha 😂
I caught some crustaceans in the bush at Uranus one time. Nothing a little bit of blues ointment couldn't sort out.
Hahahaha
use the pot lid. put some leaves in the traps helps a little
Thanks mate.
YABBIE-DABBIE-DOOOOO!!!
Great set up. You could start up your own business Robbies bush takeaway. ❤it.
Haha thanks Vincent. I could call it... Uber-yabbies. LOL 🤣🤣
Little lobsters, yummy!

Haha good luck mate, I hope that my tips can help you out.
Shit hot Robbie, cheers for this video mate might take my girls out see how they go trying some yabbis👌
Thanks so much mate. I actually have a new yabby cooking video coming out next week. Haha 👍👍
When the lamon juice reminded you first thing in the morning I bet you turned on a bit of gas too 😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha possibly, 😂😂
Question for ya Robbie. What is the difference between Yabby and crays.? Is it the size?
Hi mate, yabbies are a warm water species and Cray are a cold water species. Right now they're both a little bit active but the crays will slow down as the water warms up and the yabbies will become active.
Crays are much bigger and have a lot more laws around them to protect them.
@@robbiefishing thanks! enjoy your videos.
As you been told stop abusing snake's 😂😂 was these the yabbies that gave you gasto haha. Well done one them i can tell they tasted beautiful like always
Haha no mate, that was the Yabby noodles video, and her wish didn't come true. I didn't get gastro. LOL 😂
Didn't think it was hot enough yet fair dinkum
Yeah I'm a bit surprised too mate. Only some spots are firing, many are still really quiet.
Do you know if springers are still legal for cod or they totally illegal now like the Opera nets
Hi Lynn, springers have been illegal for many years.
When I was a kid in the 1980's, they were fully banned in Victoria and you could still use 4 in NSE but they were eventually banned in the early 1990's.
I'm 99% percent sure you're Ian Hueys son. You look and sound just like him!!
Hahaha you're not the first person that's ever said that. LOL 😅😅😅
That was a long squirt of lemon! I had to get up and pee! Thems some big yabbies
Haha that's funny. They sure were some rippers mate.
May i ask what kind of a snake was that? Black Mamba or Cobra?
Hi mate, that was a Red Bellied Black Snake.
Don’t put them to sleep prior to boiling ?
The boiling water tends to put them to sleep pretty well.
@@robbiefishing no doubt. But they do suffer being boiled alive 🙄…
That colour dam the same as tullaroop down my way very dirty. Bit cold down here for yabbies yet
Dirty water is always the best for yabbies I reckon.
Id like to see how you keep them alive if you dont eat them straight away.
Thanks for the great video idea mate.
Your welcome. 🙂
Have you ever bred them?
Anyone know if there’s fish at lake woundouree in Ballarat
Plenty of big trout in wendouree, also redfin i think.
Sure is mate. There's some very big trout and redfin in there.
salt and vinegar yabbies, good on you robbie.
Thanks so much mate. 👍👍
A trick my grandpa showed me for holding yabbs alive and fresh a lot longer - chuck em in a dam heshin bag with plenty of grass
Theyll live indefinitely as long as the bags damp and wont fight
Spot on mate. All they need to stay alive is to be kept damp. They don't need a lot of water.
10:15
Always tail your yabbies before cooking, not only can you cook more but you get rid of the muddy taste. You can buy me a beer later.
Haha thanks mate. I have a few videos where I do that. To be honest, I reckon they actually lose a bit of flavour doing that. I don't know why.
We all have different tastes I guess.
The biggest benefit of tailing them first is that I don't even up with a freezer full of shells because of I cook them at home I can tail them out the bush before I even come home..
I can't believe you "Waited 3 hours" before checking those nets. You''re getting old and patient?
Haha I was with my wife and we went elsewhere to take wildlife photos. That made it much easier than just sitting in the car waiting. LOL 😂
No no no. Best way to cook fresh yabbies is directly on the coals shell on. A couple of minutes on both front and back. Try it. You'll never boil another yabbie.
That is a big big black snake
That's what SHE said!
was this private or public waters
Yeah, nah…
Nicest things you will eat.
What a waste of food throwing the head away...
We don't eat the heads from these ones mate.
Love the yabbying content Robbie. I have recently started my own RUclips channel called @coopersfishingadventures I started it because you inspired me to make it. Thanks Robbie happy fishing
Thanks so much mate, and good luck with your channel. I will keep my eyes open for it.
