Thank you! Could you reply with a brief reason. Not that I don't trust that but I would like to know why....polution from the refineries is my guess.

Thanks Root Canal-

I was able to find this on the TPW site.....like my son said, kinda like saying a little poison is OK, just not too much too often. Oh well, it's gonna be catch, photo and release for me. I will save my unhealthy pursuits for something better than eating reds. Not sure I could enjoy them now anyway wondering what kind of unpronounceable chemicals I was ingesting. Honestly never really did like cleaning fish after a long day on the water anyway. And, as a bonus, I can lie my ***** off about all the ones we released.

Drink more beer or tequila, it will kill the chemicals you get from the fish. Seriously, nice mess of fish you had.

[BOI]

nice catch yankee! what bait?

[Silver Wolf]

Great fish. If you glow in the dark, you know you ate pass the 8oz. Lord Bless.

Update.....my son works in a lab that does testing for environmental/building material hazards. The owner is a Galveston native, A&M graduate in Marine Biology and lifelong fisherman. He thinks the TPW warnings are BS. Glad I kept the fish and I will eat them without concern.
