A buddy of mine told me the other day I shouldn't be eating the fish I catch in the Red at Selkirk (SUgar ISland), something to do with sewage. I checked the mercury levels online and they are fine!Does eveyone eat from the Red???
It is in my opinion, not dangerous to eat fish from the Red. Mind you the only fish I eat are Walleye. Ask yourself where does the water from the Red end up. Obviousley in a diluted state. Would you go out and eat pickerel in a restaurant? Many are caught in nets sited at the mouth of the Red. I read somewhere, that one would have to eat it every meal of ones life for the mercury levels to be harmful. If at all. P.S. Where in Britain are you from?The Cod one eats could be from the West coast.Supposedly the fish caught in and around that area are contaminated by SELLAFIELD, Nuclear waste processing plant. Ask youself, would you decline fish and chips in Blackpool, I sure wouldn't. zeus
Not wishing to be controversial, But some greens and Sauger remain in the red during the summer months. As for only eating the smaller ones, that goes without saying. We should release all of the biggies. Perhaps someone could put me right here with regards to the Sauger, as I was of the opinion that they came into the river in the Autumn also. Don't see many caught in the Summer.
Thanks for the reply Skiff, coming from you that puts my mind to rest about the issue

Yeah well..... When you figure that the open back hatch on a van will clear the garage door..... and it did....but the stem of the windshield wiper won't, then aluminum doors crumple like an accordian...... da*n!
