Rockfish are also called striped bass, spent a long day on a charter fishing trip waiting for a rocky looking fish before someone explained that...
Whatever happened with the whole nuclear reactor explosion in japan tainting fish, or the huge oil spills there and in the gulf for that matter?
There was all this talk about the food supply and then radio silence right after.

fuck off health freaks.
Mercury from fish isn't even bad for you. It is like claiming that sugar from fruit is bad for you. Mercury naturally occurs in fish so it isn't harmful. Also if you look at the individual fish you will see how they don't have bad mercury
>Swordfish
Swordfish are the fastest fish in the sea and can hit speeds of 70mph. Mercury cannot solidify at those speeds so it never really comes together within the fish.
>Shark
Sharks mostly eat people, and people don't have mercury so it dilutes the sharks natural mercury
>Marlin
See swordfish
>Tilefish
I don't know what these are, nobody eats them
None of these fish have mercury. I have been a professional fisherman for 20 years and never experienced any negative effects from Mercury. Sometimes I even stuff my swordfish with 'Mars' bars and eat them just to parody the reactionary nature of health freaks like the ones in this thread.

Yeah, if they eat the waste we dump into the ocean, then it does.
>>7455294
The fish I most commonly eat is Salmon. I live right on the West Coast of Canada so I always get wild salmon and it's just incredible. Sometimes I'll get a can of tuna in olive oil but besides that I don't eat a whole lot of seafood. Crab cakes occasionally.

Where are fish sticks on that chart? Its the only fish I eat.
I wouldn't be particularly concerned with eating ANY type of fish with regards to its mercury content.
The more important factor is the frequency of consumption of fish and particularly those with higher mercury content. Eating some swordfish won't kill you. Eating it every day for a year might.
You can't really look at the rate of consumption over the period of a small time because your body permanently stores any mercury that it ingests.
>>7455294
true anon
bio-magnification of heavy metals is something a group of people would rather you not know about
ocean fish high up on the chain routinely test over recommended safe limits of heavy metals, for he last ten years testing has been farcical
if they test one fish in a catch and it's over, they throw that individual fish out and presume the rest safe
A question, how does the mercury effect the larger fish? They consume nothing but fish as predators so it must build up in them too right?

Do you seriously believe mercury is only a problem in American fish? Googling "mercury in Croatian fish" proves that that's not the case.
I fucking love tuna. I'd eat it every day if I could, but I stick with sardines for safety. If it weren't for sardines, I'd probably bleed mercury.

Mercury is a meme

It is certainly not a problem in Croatia or neighboring countries. It is only a problem in polluted waters, such as the coastline in America, Japan, China. There have been cases of high mercury in fish from the Adriatic sea but not nearly as high often as in the USA.
>>7462339
Do you even know what ppm means ?
>This is a way of expressing very dilute concentrations of substances. Just as per cent means out of a hundred, so parts per million or ppm means out of a million. Usually describes the concentration of something in water or soil. One ppm is equivalent to 1 milligram of something per liter of water (mg/l) or 1 milligram of something per kilogram soil (mg/kg).

The fish you're eating are laden with poisonous chemicals. Sea food is no longer safe to eat and is probably worse than the CAFO "meat" in supermarkets.
>>7455294
I'm in my mid-30's. I'm pretty sure the mercury in my daily shark salads isn't going to be the thing that kills me.
>>7464135
My sea is better than your sea. It is a fact. Nobody was talking about oceans. If we compared them maybe 500-800 years ago they would be the same quality.
>>7464144
It just can't be done. The production and fishing is so vast that it is impossible to renew the system fast enough. That is why most fish caught in those industrial fishing areas taste like shit and small independent secluded seas are superior in everything except quantity.
My guess is that in our lifetime there would probably be a shortage of certain fish on the market.
>>7464216
>the air you're breathing is full with poisonous chemicals. Air is no longer safe to breathe and we should all stop breathing.
>>7459471
He quite clearly means the limited amounts of mercury in food, not eating straight up mercury you idiot. Use context.
>>7464223
You should read about the effects of mercury poisoning over a period of time. It is not so simple as you just keel over and die; you will be fucked up for a while. Not to mention that mercury is cumulative so any of it you have been exposed to since now is stored in your brain.
Not saying you WILL have any negative effects but it is not negligible.
>>7455294
>not liking mako shark
>>7462325
I dont understand why troll caught tuna is on that list. even if you use more difficult means to catch fish sustainably doesn't mean they wont be caught later, and the more people eat it, the more that will dissapear off of the market entirely. whats the difference between eating sustainable tuna when theres nothing stopping them from wandering over to the guys who aren't sustainable? wouldnt the thing to do be to eat as little as possible period?
Is there any sort of mercury separator available? Can I vaporize my shark meat, remove the mercury, and then breathe the mercury-free shark meat vapor? Can it be flavored?
i know someone who got mercury poisoning from eating a can a day for some months. their hair started falling out and the doctor said it was mercury poisoning. i'm sure there's a bunch of retards ITT talking about how it's not an issue, and obviously eating a can a day for two months is just not healthy in general, but the facts are facts.

Nothing, because it wasn't important.
The planet is naturally radioactive anyway. Unless you are literally casting your rod down the road from the Fukushima plant any added radiation it made leak into the ocean is the radiation equivalent of walking out into the bright summer sunshine with a torch and your light phobic neighbor screaming about the light pollution you are causing.
And as an aside, the fukushima plant disaster could have been avoided if the people in charge of it had followed the safety advice they had literally been given a decade in advance (that a tsunami - that's a japanese word folks, giving a clue of their rarity or lack thereof in the area - happening nearby would totally fuck it over and cause the exact chain of events that happened).
The incompetence of the few ruins all our nice things. We invent something fucking amazing, then some idiot does it totally wrong, gets away with it and people jump up and say 'the nice thing is terrible! blame it!'.
I hope whoever was responsible for trying to put yet another nail into nuclear's coffin was taken aside and told to commit seppuku.
