Contributor 2013

Hi all.

Been away from the old pike fishing for ages, roach etc too. Looking for some good spots, maybe on the grand canal I was thinking? Or possibly even the Liffey?

If anyone could PM me some that would be awesome, thanks in advance.

They are sold in the Asian markets in town for human consumption
They are used as bait aswell

If you are going into eat Razor you need to ensure they are from a sources which is certified safe for Human consumption as they accumulate biotoxins naturally produced by phytoplankton in seawater, as a result of their filter feeding.

The Marine Institute monitors it I believe. As I only use them for bait I never bothered to check the status of any I use.

I dont eat much sea food so im not too bothered by whats in them.
I did taste one from the last batch i got. Used the steamed in white wine recipee but used white lemonade instead as it was my 5 yo who wanted to taste them and i had no wine. Rank wasnt the word but like i said, im not into sea food.

I usually pop an elastic band around them, leave them in the fridge for a few days to let them go a little yellow and freeze them in bags of 4/5.

Caught today after a fierce drought! Happy with that.

What's the sore does anyone know - I presume leeches as they tend to get them during the winter or something else??

Looks like it could be a lamprey mark.

thefisherbuy

It's kind of hard to tell from the picture, But i'd say its a lamprey mark...
