Re: Barra season in the Top End

While the mudcrabs Marrakai are holding are glowing red and huge they are from coastal mud plains and mangrove swamps.

There IS radioactive country in the Kakadu area. When holidaying there two years ago we were told the Aboriginals used to refer to certain areas as "sickness country". Sounds like out of an old African Tarzan movie or really old Aussie bush movie where the debil-debils live. They were forbidden by tribal law to go to those areas. In modern times, uranium and similar minerals were found in those areas, so the traditional Aborigines were not supertitious or silly at all in regard to "sickness country".

Marrakai - damned nice fish you are holding up too.
