The higher in the food chain the greater the possibility of hgher toxin levels. That makes sense.
The problem lies in what fish you are eating.
Bass eat smaller baitfish and the occasional herring and bunker (when they are available after the schools have been decimated from netters).
Tuna eat these too, but also eat bluefish, which also eat these too!
By these comparisons, the tuna would be exponentially more toxic than bass.

Tuna have high levels of mercury, bass are moderate, so yeah they are more toxic . Moderate mercury level fish still a problem for kids.
