Very true. I wonder why some fish seem to hold more PCB and mercury than others?
I can understand the bottom feeder fish but the others? The only thing I can think of is that, other than the bottom feeders, the next higher seems to be preditory fish. So, if they are eating higher concentrates of "non preditor" fish, then they stand to gain and hold more of the PCB and mercury.
But, then you look at white bass. I wonder if it has more to do with the fat holding content. If you ever clean a white bass, you will notice that there is a very dark line of meat directly under the skin. Same for some of the walleyes in that area. Really makes you wonder. I'm not a fan of eating walleye in that chain from Port Huron all the way to the Erie Mouth. For whatever reason, they just don't taste the same (to me) as the fish out in Erie or Huron for that matter. I've stopped eating them from the Detroit river and the Saginaw river simply because the taste is less appealing to me than the lake caught fish.
