SNAPPY CUISINE
PROUD hunter of a splendid snapper is Mark Coughlan who, in the company of several Richmond buddies, went out on a boat on Sunday with a group from the Futurefish Foundation that aims to teach young anglers about sustainable practices.
While Coughlan, a keen fisherman, doesn’t look overly happy in this shot, he was feeling pretty chuffed yesterday after enjoying his catch at a barbecue put on by fellow Tiger Andrew Raines the next day.
"He was probably four kilos, but you can say he’s six if you like," Coughlan said.
Incidentally, the weekend outing was fruitful for Raines, Adam Pattison, Kayne Pettifer and Kelvin Moore as well. Only Will Thursfield returned to solid ground empty-handed.
Most impressive of all though was Raines’ subsequent efforts with the snapper in the kitchen.
"He wrapped it in foil and chucked it on the barbecue. He even marinated it, I think," Coughlan said, still sounding stunned. "But that was just trying to impress his girlfriend and he actually forgot to scale it."
