Club Privilege.

Our local club has a great restaurant - friendly service - delicious food and club prices. A large glass of quality NZ wine - $9! This was whitebait fritters - large and $20NZ! Full of whitebait!
An interesting fact:
Wholesale prices for West Coast whitebait range between $60 to $70 a kilogram, so a whitebaiter would need to catch about three tonnes of the fish to pay for a $200,000 stand.
Thankful for
Our local club!

My dad was an avid whitebaiter. Eggs, salt and whitebait are all you need for making those fritters.

These look delicious...I must try them next time we are allowed in! I watched a video once from A Country Calender showing catching Whitebait....have had them on their own as a crispy starter but never in a fritter.
