The state test the flesh in some fish last year and reached the conclusion they were safe to eat. I read an article by John Haggeman, a fish biologist on Lake Erie. Just like with mercury and PCB's, the higher you go on the food chain, the more exposure you will get from any contaminates. As long as you don't eat fish every day, week after week, I think you'll be OK. If you catch fish as rarely as I do, that shouldn't be a problem!
