First off I don't really consume too many fish... When I do eat fish I am very.. very.. selective of where and how I eat the fish from a particular water body

For instance when I have a snack of fish I prefer it to be as fresh as possible...ie. I gut the fish right away... cut the gills out and make sure it stays nice and chilled

I believe when commenting about the Ottawa(which has already been stated) It's all about what type of fish and size... for example... a snack of crappie or perch I would do... consuming a larger sportfish which has spent many years in river... never

Would I criticize anyone that would do it.... not a chance

Be selective of your harvest and enjoy the phenomenal fishery that is in your backyard
Cheers and Good Fishing!!
