My late father had his PHD and Masters in parasitology; he was mortified that I would cut the bellies out of salmon on the boat and serve it diced up with a ponzu sauce.

So far so good.

We did buy some halibut when he was out here from Winnipeg a number of years back (my freezer was empty) and when opening the brown paper packaging there were worms everywhere.

In saying that when we go for early springs or any springs for that matter we always cook up some fresh as they are SO good. Cooked to medium and no problems ever.
