this is because all your waters down there are polluted or have nasty bugs.....ours dont, for the most part...im talkin salmon that just came up from the sea to spawn......we dont have many, if any, parasites in our moving waters, maybe in some lakes where geese frequent heavily for extended periods, but you can just about drink from any stream without worryin a whole lot unless you drink a lot of it....giardia and beaver fevers the only thing we worry about...only got the latter once.....i mean hey- survivorman and bear grylls both do it.....we dont eat fish from the stocked lakes around the cities or resident trout from the local creeks that have houses on them....the salmon we get out of the local anchorage creeks....we catch em down at the mouth right when they come in....as far as out of town streams and lakes you have very little to worry about....
i will frequently catch a fresh salmon (in a river/creek) and eat part of it right there on the bank raw.... its pretty good...i especially like red salmon but kings and silvers are good too...anyone think im weird? not entrails just part of the fillet...
Watch the TV program. Monsters Inside Me. After a couple of episodes you wont want to eat anything that is not thoroughly cooked.
I have seen those codworms (Anisakiasis ) in store bought filets. I check al my filets thoroughly. have even seen them in smelt.
