    A question for the Australians here.

    I was doing a little shoplift..... I mean shopping at the local BJ's Wholesale Club© when I saw this in the frozen seafood section.





    I'm curious to know what Dales reaction would be, if he saw this in a local store.

    Would it be akin to me seeing stacked bags of commercially caught Largemouth fillets in the frozen seafood section?

    I sure don't know if Barramundi is an unquestionably sustainable fishery,
    but it sure seems to be the gamefish of choice for the inland down-underers.

    I'm pretty sure those Barramundi are probably farm-raised in the U.S. Here's a link to the sustainability of them. http://www.neaq.org/conservati...i.php

    Plenty of farm raised Barramundi are available. The aquaculture industry is pretty big with barra. It doens't upset me too much. I've killed enough and eaten enough of them to realise that they are good on the table. Natural wild Barramundi taken in salt water are some of the best table fish you will find, big girls taken in a lake and not prepared properly are some of the worst. The farm bred fish for the table are quite small when they are harvested so the taste is pretty good. That seems cheaper that we would buy them here for too.
