I have the good fortune to be going on a kayak trip off Vancouver Island,
BC, and in order to try to stretch out my provisions, I'm planning to
supplement my protein intake by (sal****er-only) fishing --- salmon,
snapper,
rock-cod, geoduck, mussels. I love sushi and think preparing the catch this
way
would be good --- how much fresher can you get than minutes old? Rice is
compact
and easy to transport in large quantities.

My question is about parasites --- Health Canada has a lot of extremely
technical info about L2 vs L3 larvae, and their appearance at various larval
stages and simply say that
rock-cod and salmon are liable to infestation, but say nothing about
bivalves.

Our waters are cold year round, 8C --- I understand this is better than the
tropics (for parasites)?

Is there one species of fish that is less susceptible to Anisakiasis?
Snapper? Rock-cod? Salmon?
Geo-ducks are plentiful where I'm going --- are they liable to parasite
infestation?

Should I even be worried about Anisakiasis or other parasites?

Any info appreciated ..
Tom


Hi all . . . it has been quite a while since I have been here. I see
Dan is as active as ever.

DAVID! Welcome back! I was wondering where you had gone.
Hope everything is well.

I'm looking forward to another fishing season, full of fresh tasty fish.
