seriously , i was told to check the eyes, if they are black and look like they are looking back they are good. for pilchards anyway
black spots on squid would make sense to but dont quote me

The Hawkesbury prawns I buy are frozen but when thawed are as fresh as anything. That is provided I can't get to a bait shop to buy fresh. As for pillies the eyes and texture of the flesh is how I tell when I buy them.
When it comes to SP's I give them a prod and if they spring back I get them as well. :twisted: :twisted:
