Hi Diane, haven't I seen you on the Minute thread? How's Averill?

<<Lake Michigan salmon is Coho salmon and probably shouldn't be eaten in large quantities because of the PCBs. >>

Cohos are the talked about strain but 10 times as many pounds of kings are caught. The catch is cohos-up to 10 pounds, kings-up to 30 pounds, brook trout-small, steelhead to 20 pounds and browns to 15 pounds. The brookies, steelhead and browns being trout. Then we have lake trout which are a char and once were native.

The PCBs were used as insulators in electrical stuff. Outboard Marine dumped a 3 foot layer in Waukeegan Harbor.

Salmon here costs $10 a pound and pork chops $1.79. I had some mackeral but figuring the cost of the trip to Florida to catch it the price was $697.00 per pound.
