Some good fish South.. - Page 4 - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

Well, Ken, add another mistake to your list.

I called the MA state Dept of Public health and was connected to the head of the food lab.

State fisheries (ie the DMF) will grind up a whole fish when they want to investigate total toxin burden in the fish for fish biology reasons. This process (and the DMF itself) has NOTHING to do with testing for toxins that are harmful for human consumption.

That testing is done by the state DPH and the FDA. Unless the fish is eaten whole...such as anchovies....the policy is to fillet the fish, homogenize the fillet, and test only the edible flesh.

Now I realize that some people with really big mouths may eat 40lb bass whole, but it is not the standard practice so the DPH and FDA do not test fish that way.

I hope you find this helpful and cease spreading misinformation that will give people a false sense of security when they eat striped bass.

Wow this has got more action than my day time soaps. Mud slinging, name calling, science facts, pictures, more mud slinging, murder victims, food preparation techniques, bragging rights, character assassinations. Could have sworn we went thru this just this spring and last winter or last spring or all three. Going to be a long winter.

If you caught a 50 you would be the FIRST one snapping pictures and running to the scales with it, how proud were you of the 40.25 you weighed in for the cup last year???You had a boat this year... 50's should have been jumping all in it!!! Had a bad season I take it? Expenses high? Dont even know ur backyard...Not easy when the fish arent stacked and you have to put some EFFORT in it... Your buddies catch a 50 and we all hear about it within hours so stop kidding yourself. Ive seen how you attacked other fishermen / surfcasters on here in the past, its what you do. Thanks for the lesson in business. I guess Business is really bad for me, all I get is meathunters and cowkillers calling, where are the C&R guys? Im so damn tired of filleting. Should of never sold the small boat! Enjoy the winter behind the computer! I need to find a bigger cooler damn it!

Best season for me to date Ken. I have a lot to learn but got a lot of hours on the new boat.Fluke,sea bass ,cod,haddock,tog,tuna,I even caught a couple bass.Fished with my brother a lot and really enjoyed my time on the water.It's hard without Bruce holding my hand, but I'll get there in time and have fun doing it.Expenses weren't a factor,you know my boat is cheap to run.Nice to hear business is good for you,I know you fish hard.You can use all those clients to catch fish for you to weigh in the tournaments right?Uh,where did I hear THAT?
Take it slow Hollywood.See you in VA Beach.

I was kinda thinking that with Law & Order off the air I'd be starving for those plots, but who knew?

I'm trying to chime in on this thread but don't know what to say. I'm like a deer caught in headlights. I like bass.

Larry's on a tear. We kissed and made up earlier, and now he's working on Bart!

Boy's gonna catch somethin' if he's not careful.
