I think you need to find the Witch King of Angmar, Lord of the Nazgul.

Remember from Lord of the Rings when he rode up and the Hobbits were hiding behind a tree and all the worms and bugs were driven from the ground around them?

Like, that should do the trick.

If Spence's method happens to fail for some reason....

I just hold them up to the light while filleting them. With a keen eye you can get the majority of them out. And they do tend to bore out when cold and die when cooked, so you should be all set.

Great Wolf! Congrats.
