Prob no full ones!
Plenty out there but mostly smaller.
Still easy enough to get a feed tho.

Soooo sweet and tasty! Load up fishface :D
Go for it Pengy. Take a spade and do it like a POME.
That would be breaking the rules, and I don't want to risk my Kiwi statusQuote:

They are delicious. You've gotta get them to spit out all the sand they have in em(various ways of doing this), and use em steamed, in soups, any which way, they're all good. Best I've had was raw in a shot of tomato juice, Tabasco and vodka - I'd recommend 4 to start with hahahaha
Dipped in malt vinegar is simple and good.

cooked on a sheet of old corro iron over a fire at the head of the inlet,18 month old kid shouting more,more.:thumbsup:
Sheet that was a while ago.
Piss off. Anchovies are salty and sand is crunchy. Yours is obviously far from my experience with the sweet little buggers Maca.Quote:
