G'day knackers.... Just like u i too was bought up on them too.. I tend to use home made drum nets or opera house nets myself.. My idea of a good feed is to fill a bath tub full of 9" yabbies an let them soak for a few days changen the water offten, another trick while doing that is to feed the yabbies Garlic an they really taste so much better .. My kids an i often camp out on our farm fishing an ferreting rabbits or even catching ferryl pigs.. Keep in touch via E-mail if u like..

"You'll never guess where I got this rag from..." - Love it mate. Thanks for sharing.

Your channel is growing so fast and soon you'll be making a fortune off of it. Remember Robbie don't let success change who you are, keep up the spectacular videos mate!

Great video mate, never tried nets but thinking about giving it a try. I usually just dangle a bit of meat on a string in the local billabongs and creeks, good for a couple here and there.

You legend Robbie keep doing what you do HUGE FAN!

Ha you have the same bag as my young blokes school bag Robbie , On a separate note a bit of boiling water and some either garlic butter and or 1000 island dressing and you've got one mighty fine feed my good friend ,geez I mis the days of traveling in the bush ,yabbys were a staple feed between me and my mates when I was a younger lad ,it's just a shame the creeks are polluted to the hilt over my way ,I've seen some good size creek bugs that could do with some cooking down my way . Take care my friend

Keep it up mate keen to see some new videos !

Check out this young guy! Good throwback video to watch. Always consistent in making sure to return undersized or females with eggs to the water to ensure the next generation of yabbies. Love it!

Yabbying looks like so much fun! =D

Robbie is a great guy and by the looks of it he knows what his doing

Great video mate

I like the dome pots because I leave mine in over night but the eels get in and rip my bait out or rip my mesh on the net

Great videos mate

Hey Robbie. I use a painters pole to drop my nets out. Mine is 3.6 mts extended but only 2 mts folded. Can go longer if you have the room to carry!

I'm not sure if it was the size of the yabbies you caught or the fact that you caught yabbies but this made me smile.

You should try putting the float as close to the join thst holds the rings as possible, thst way the rope won't be sitting on the net and risk flicking the yabbies out or scaring then off the net when I moves.

What bait did you use

Great video mate :) you seem like a solid bloke. Do you know what type of conditions yabbies have to be in to be edible? I live right next to a public lake, Wynn Vale dam. I know there's yabbies in there i've caught a heap of em, but I don't know if its edible because its also protected by the council. And who knows what they put in there, is it safe to say I should find another spot for eating yabbies?

@robbiefishing

Thanks heaps mate. In all honesty I do not fully know the answer to your question. I would imagine they would be OK but I advise that you ask somebody else. I eat them out of putrid dirty farm dams. That dirty water is usually filthy to look at, but not so much polluted. Then you have clear water with a lot of pollutants in it such as chemical run off etc... Don't confuse dirty water with polluted water, they are two different things. I am sorry that I can not help you out more mate.

Do you ever use opera house traps? I've always had more success with them

Please make a video where you catch and cook the yabbies

Yabbies are mostly nocturnal so you should put them in befor night then check them in the morning. Thats how i catch them and it works great

Great for when you need yabbies for a reason but don't have time to catch them, just drop a few opera house nets in and come back the next day. They are subject to some stringent rules though mate for sure.

Lol that pregnant yabby just got thrown back in. By the way, is it fine to go yabbying in the winter? or is it not recommended because the sun is not hot enough? And do you know where in Victoria is a great place to go yabbying?

@sarahanne2

8 жыл бұрын

1. Have yabbies to cook, dead or alive 2. Boil a pot (size depending on how many yabbies you have 3. Add a lot of salt, also vinegar if you want (it tastes nicer) 4. Put the yabbies in the boiling pot, put the lid on and leave to cook for around 7 minutes, if you have a lot more and it's crowded in the pot cook for longer 5. Drain the water from pot and you have freshly cooked yabbies!

hey if you leave you them in for like an hour or two or even better a night you'll catch heaps more

thumbs up for ur jokes

Drop net for yabbies is a totally dumb idea - sure it have some success, but a cage with dual entry and no escape is a way better method - No tangling, and the crays will stay in so you can leave the cage over night (they often feed during early morning and dark times as well, going into a sleep mode during the day) - so leave the traps over night would not hurt a bit
