About Bass from Lake Champlain

Post by raryyang »

I got 2 bass from Lake Champlain at my first time fishing. I am not sure if they are edible or not. I am worried about parasites. I know that there are some common fishing-host parasites in wild bass.

Good question, I bet Fish & Wildlife would be able to answer that for you if you gave them a call.

I don't think you should eat the bass from LC, I don't think you should even go catch any,,,I think you should leave them all for me,,,I find them to be delicious,fried or baked or broiled or on the grill

Maybe thats what is wrong with me. I have eaten a few Bass ( okay many) and other species of fish from Champlain. I knew there was something that made me what I am.

Seriously, you're going to cook the Bass fillets aren't you. Any possible parasite will be cooked too.
