Let's do it again, I heard the COD bite is in the AM now. I think Mike found my boots so I am good to go if Judith Dear is OK with it.

Tonight we had some of that Cod we caught....Awesome.

It wont last forever so get em while you can.

what would be the best way to get those tiny worms from the cod? i understand they are harmless...just bug me out a little...has anyone noticed them being more prevelant in the tail section of the fillet or is that just because you can see them better cause its thinner? i fished up in mass. a bunch in early 90's and don't recall finding so many

When i worked in the fish market we would just hold the fillet up to the lite , take a tweeser or knife and pluck em out.

Yep...thats the best way. Hold the fillet to the light to spot them, take a very thin knife, small cut, then gentle flick.

when i got home i washed the fillets and put them in the frig on a bakers rack inside a big pyrex dish it was late i was going to pack them when i got up in morning.i pulled out dish and there was about 10 that were laying in the bottom of the dish. this is something that i normally dont do but i will try it next time. no worms in fish that was cooked yet .

I wold not recamend cleaning your fish in fresh water until you intend on cooking it. I've been holding them up and plucking em out latly, but for many years I did not even know they were their. It kinda bugs me out too, I feel obligated to tell the people I give fish away to that they in fact have worms. The result has been I have a lot less people to give cod to! Good thing the fishing is not what it used to be, I'd have a hundered pounds of filet in my freezer aper trip!!
