The Australian waters are a mecca for fishing die-hards but you really need to get off shore to be hooking the big fish. On a well organised fishing charter you have a great opportunity of catching fish not just to supply you dinner that night but quite possibly to feed you quite a few nights to come. Generally the skipper of the boat will talk to all of the people fishing and decide whether you just divide the catch evenly or keep what you caught. My proposal is to always split everything. its a safer bet as you cant really lose. I have been on boats before where it seems like everyone else is having luck apart from you and you really dont want to go home with no fish and think about the others enjoying theres for dinner that night.
Some people might say that for the expense of the charter you could have outlaid the cost the fish you wanted. Lets face it, there is nothing better than eating fish that you caught yourself, for some reason it just tastes so much more gratifying! On top of that, if you have a really favorable day on the boat and get a few fish each, you will come home with more fish you could have brought with the money spent on the trip.
If fortune goes in your favour and you get a lot of fish you next have to decide how to cook them Fresh fish is best in my thoughts lightly coated with flour and then pan fried in butter with a squeeze of lemon. You dont need to do much to fresh fish, easiest to keep it simple and enjoy the lovely fresh flavour. Depending on the sort of fish, dishes like kebabs are delicious on the barbecue but you want to ensure that you are using a fish with firm flesh so that it stays on the skewer.
A great way to cook additional fish is to use a smoker. Because we do it a lot we have actually purchased a smoker which consists of a round stainless steel oven which has a solid base where you place your wood chips. Then it has a couple of interchangeable wire racks for the fish. Lastly a lid sits on top to keep the smoke in and grill the fish.
Smoking fish is a fast and really simple way to make a meal. The ways and means itself cooks the fish really quickly. Also, if you have not filleted your fish, you can just place it in the smoker entire and then enjoy picking at the fish once its cooked. Thats a great way to share your catch with others over a bottle of plonk.
Smokers can be a little steep if it is something you will not do often but there is an alternate choice. The Chinese have been smoking cuisine for many many years and use their woks. They line the wok with tinfoil permiting the edges to overhang. If you dont have a lid you will need extra to cover it as the fish cooks to keep the smoke in. You then have the option of using a mixture of half rice and half tea leaves or simply wood chips on their own. Cover the wok and turn on until you see it start to smoke. Place the fish (or chicken which is super yummy done this way too) on a rack or a bamboo steamer and try to make sure there is enough room for the smoke to circulate around the fish so that it cooks evenly. Once the fish is in, cover with the lid. The process is quick, only about five minutes for a fillet.
So next time you are thinking you would love a feed of fresh fish, my suggestion is to get out there and catch it yourself. Some of the fish out there in the shops is really not fresh and I am not convinced that the origins of the fish are always marked in truth. If you want a high success rate, then book a charter. The missus might even enjoy herself too!
