DDT?! Where did that come from? It's been banned in the US since Dec 31,
1972.

Whatever the reason, I understand your concern. I enjoy keeping the
occasional fish for dinner too. I'm not real fond of trout (they're the ones
most protected anyway) but I love a meal of bass or bluegill.

I just heard on our local news that the State Game and Fish have put a
"Mandatory" catch and release on all fish caught in Brantley Lake, (4 miles
from me). The reason, elevated amounts of DDT found in them. Evidently it
got there from runoff from fields upstream with the heavy rains earlier
this year. Wonder how else it will effect the lake? It is just starting to
get real nice after the Golden Algae almost wiped it out about 3 years ago.
