fred 1 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Acramen creek on the west coast produced this cracker. Falcon and had a few when he starts yelling i've caught a Sherrin. This toady was on roids and was as big as a footy. We couldn't stop laughing at the ridiculous size of this bloody fish. It had teeth like a rabbit on it. We let him keep the hook. We released it of course but it floated on the surface all puffed up, for about half an hour. Then with out any warning he deflated and burned off.

afishyfish 4 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Are the spikes dangerous? venom/poison wise?Not that I know of kat. I think its only the gut lining of these fish that contains any poison.The japanese chefs have to be so careful to remove this because of poisoning possibilities, but pls dont try it without checking with an authority first Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whyallabrad 0 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 I think the heaps spiky ones are called a globe fish. My biggest two were a kilo specimen of puffer from the surf at 42 mile and a 1.5kg mammoth from gove in arnhem land. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rollas 2 Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Caught on a livie waiting for the ferry in Shute Harbour to go to Hamo.There are stories up there of them being called Toe Fish because when your putting your boat in on the ramp they have come up and taken chunks out of people's feet. True story.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
