Title: Mercury in fish - Manitoba
Post by: Drift Dodger on Dec 20, 2020, 11:05 AM

Just saw a related post on another board. Accordingly please check out the document below "Mercury In Fish & Guidelines For The Consumption of Recreationally Angled Fish In Manitoba" ... food for thought! (Please pardon the pun.)

Thx for the link. I’m SW MB so I’m not really sure what water shed to go off of but I’ve never really paid much attention to this info in the past.  When my wife was pregnant she didn’t eat any fish to be safe.
I don’t catch enough or keep enough usually to worry about it lol!
