davey buoy Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Posted May 2, 2012 For those that havent seen it... http://vimeo.com/11817894 Thanks for the video,all kidding aside,those fish must be immune to almost anything. That river must be the nastiest one I've ever seen. You can see what a huge bussiness that is with little to no regulations.
misfish Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 For those that havent seen it... http://vimeo.com/11817894 Thats just nasty.
Rod Caster Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 Then just eat the fish from Lake Ontario.... Ok, THAT'S funny! Hahahaha I'm happy to say I havnt bought fish in a long time. I keep just enough to eat 2 or 3 meals of fish per week.
Christopheraaron Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 I looove a good piece of halibut, got any tips on your favourite spot in ontario for those!
bigugli Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 At least catfish is available from U.S. farms. As are tilapia. Some tilapia also comes from wild harvest in Mexico. Some of the great bass lakes, like El Salto were also stocked with tilapia.
12footspringbok Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 I wouldn't touch the stuff with a 10 foot pole... Unfortunately I don't think there are many fish out there that aren't polluted anymore. Heck, just the other day Tepco admitted they are still dumping 1000 tonnes of highly radioactive water straight into the pacific ocean daily and this has been ongoing for over a year now... How about some nice Pacific Salmon or Halibut... No thanks... One thing I would be curious is to see all this fish in the grocery store get tested just like our sport fish do for safe eating reccomendations... Oh wait the results would probably be shocking...

Red meat is bad for you....much worse then any fish you might eat out of Canadian waters....so what's it going to be today....steak, burgers, or how about a nice thick pork chop...
Beans Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) For those that havent seen it... http://vimeo.com/11817894 Shortly after eating some basa fillets I saw this same video on TV...no more basa for me thanks... Edited May 3, 2012 by Beans
Mike Pike Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 That video on Basa is presented by by American catfish farmers( click link below video ). So it's presented with an adjenda. I'm not saying the claims in the video aren't all true, but I just know it's was presented by a competing industry.
Billy Bob Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Look up "How Fish Sauce is Made"..... disgusting...
davey buoy Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Look up "How Fish Sauce is Made"..... disgusting... It's the way they process that also can be a problem. What's that saying,(what you don't know won't hurt ya).If you members didn't give feedback I think I would of run with it..Thanks. Edited May 3, 2012 by davey buoy
Billy Bob Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 I seen it done on the Discovery Channel about a year ago..... They took ANY kind of fish they could get....if big they would cut it up in smaller pieces.....throw it in a HUGE round concrete vat and cover it for 1 year in the sun....then after one year they would open up a spic-it at the bottom of the vat and let the nasty stuff run through a filter and into a bottle....and there's you fish sauce...

I had a friend give me some homemade fish sauce once, he said he used anchovies/salt and thats it. It was good in very small amounts, had a nutty flavor to it. I'll never buy anything off the shelf now however...
Spiel Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 and then they call it fermentation... lol If you think it gross you may want to stay away from Worcestershire sauce as well.
mercman Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 If you think it gross you may want to stay away from Worcestershire sauce as well. I DO NOT want to know what i have been sprinkling liberally on my Triple A T-Bones.
manitoubass2 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) If you think it gross you may want to stay away from Worcestershire sauce as well. Controlled fermentation in sanitized conditions is fine by me. I use Lea & Perrins, and it's legit (according to How its Made) lol. Edited May 4, 2012 by manitoubass2
davey buoy Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Posted May 4, 2012 Saw some breaded talipa at the market today,checked the box and couldn't find any information but nutritional specs. This basa thing has me scared of all that type of fish now. Think I'll stay with the wild haddock and pollok and such for now.

If you want good fish, go see Johnnys Fish market on Bryne Dr. Just a couple doors over from the Holiday Express.

davey buoy Posted May 5, 2012 Author Report Posted May 5, 2012 Thats what I have been telling him Erich. :wallbash: :wallbash: LOL,Brian I will check out Johnny's soon. One of my sons works at No Frills so I either take him or pick him up every other day or so.Usually do a little shopping,and check out the inventory.
Fisherman Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 Hahaha, ya, go south on Bryne Dr, same side as the big water tower at the Ford dealer on Mapleview. After watching some of those shows mentioned earlier, either I catch it from reasonably clean water or I go to Johnnys.
