Robert's Ramblings

When I was around 10 years old and on holidays my dad took us fishing the incoming tide of Port Parham. Our daily ritual involved hunting for bait at low tide, digging for worms, muscles and cockles.

Cockle were always our prize and were the bait of choice needed to target the whiting that would hopefully grace the evening’s table.

Funny how I never thought of cockles as food for people until so much later in my life. I was in my mid twenties when I first noticed cockles on a menu and have never looked back.

So glad I’ve added cockles to my idea of C food.
