yabbies

Here are some pics of the Yabbie's we caught and ate at Christmas. We caught 26 altogether, but I think I actually caught the most though ;)

When we transferred the Yabbie's to another shallow bowl ready to take them in to cook, they started to escape. I was freaking out because they have BIG pincher's and last time one of them pinched my finger and I couldn't get the little blighter off. You have to grab them in exactly in the right spot so they can't pinch you. SP came to the rescue, he caught the escapee's and put them back in the bucket. Mwah ha ha ha!

We caught, we had some escapee's, we cooked, we peeled and we ate. By the time you have peeled them though there isn't all that much left to eat...

I've had those before. We call them crawfish or crawdads. You're right, not too much meat on them guys.
