  • Solo camping a new island 40km offshore to find some clear water. Managed to get a big painted crayfish which made for a delicious catch and cook meal... camping and surviving off the ocean... is there anything better.

      So true, I searched for a restaurant serving lobster right after watching this - ended up at The Lobster and Beer where they were serving "Grilled Lobster Tails".......turned out to be tiny langoustine tails - totally needed the beer after that! 🤣🤣

      A lobster has large pincers..Some like the Southern Rock Lobster don't. Tasmanians refer to the latter as Crayfish. Fresh water Crayfish have pincers and they are referred to as Crayfish.Giant Fresh water Tasmanian Crayfish have massive pincers also known as either Lobsters or Crayfish. Just to be confusing either name seems right.

      I think the name Crayfish is just used loosely like in NZ.
