  • Why is the headline trying to make it sound like it's new or a big deal?

    That's a terrible sensationalist website btw...

  • First, bonito is not tuna. Second, the reason there is a season for bonito is because of the parasites.

  • Land based fish farms might be the future for seafood. Actually rooting for Nordic Halibut and Salmon Evolution.

  • Any angler will know that, in some lakes, it seems like every fish is full of worms. I've always dealt with that by frying the crap out of them -- no medium-rare bass for me, sorry. Alternatively, I'm sure they're fine after a few weeks in the freezer.

    Rivers seem to be better, with worm presence (or at least, obvious worm presence) being less common. Additionally, I've never seen worms in bottom-feeding fish like catfish and carp.
