Hey that/s not true about prawns and soft shells and full moons = generally full moon is not a good time to fish for anything. Occasionally you get a  and soft shelled prawn but that has nothing to do with the moon.

 Howdyeeee Elle  , read  that on the full moon, prawns shed  there shells, to grow bigger, and people who eat prawns, dont like soft prawns,,,But  I bow to Your superior understanding.of prawns, hehe, .....Billeeeee

Oh Jon, this travel thing is certainly opening your mind and your demeanour. I used to perceive you as a very reserved gentleman, but that image has faded somewhat recently. All good of course. I like the new image and your developed sense of humour.

Now to prawns. They don't trawl for prawns on the full moon because the little buggers dig in and don't swim. They like it dark to feed and do "other stuff" so other fishies don't see them as dinner. Nothing to do with the texture of the shell.
Most pelagic species go quiet in the moon for the same reason. It's a very private time for the sea critters.

Hey Billeeeee are you talking about wildflowers - this is a great time of year where every part of the bush shimmers with flowers and life even if not in a premium wildflower area. I took my visiting cousins down to Greens Pools today (Denmark WA) - they have a bush tracker and have been nomads for 10 yrs. There were so many rare orchids on the way down to Greens Pool and it was really special.

My ex and I worked the trawlers in the Gulf of Carpentaria and across to NW Oz coast to WA, in the 70's, catching banana prawns in the daytime, and later in the year, catching tiger prawns in the night time. Bananas by day and tigers by night.
The king prawns in SA behave the same as tigers, but they're a bigger, better prawn.
I'm not a "wharf rat" anymore, but I still know where to go or who to ask to get a feed.
He also worked on the SA Fisheries research vessel, and the crew got to take the experiemental catch home. We couldn't sell them but we could trade with them. eg a secondhand lounge for 1 bag.
The last time I went to Pt. Lincoln my daughter presented me with a cooked, mid-sized cray fish (rock lobster). I sat with a bowl of vinegar and some buttered bread and ate myself silly. They didn't even want to share with me. Ah, the indulgence! Mmmmm.....

watch out for the bb's in my replys, I keep press that key near my button mouse thing on my laptop.
