The Fish and Boat Commission believes strongly that anglers and others who eat fish should be informed when there are findings of low levels of PCBs of fish. The information we provide should be used by individual anglers to evaluate their own situations and determine the proper course of action for themselves. All fish should be thoroughly cleaned and cooked. Those who wish can further reduce there lifetime exposure by voluntarily reducing their consumption of fish. And no one should be afraid to eat their catch in moderation.
Fishing is a safe sport, and consuming fresh fish is a healthy thing to do.
