The Mass, books have had mercury advisories for all native fish and other
warnings for most of the ponds for a long time. This PCB issue for hatchery
fish is new, I think they started to look into hatchery chow after that
study last winter showed high PCB levels in farmed salmon compared to wild
stock, USF&W (and presumably lots of states) have been using the same
trout and salmon pellets.

We have one badly PCB tainted stream (the Housatonic, which ran next to a GE
transformer plant) that has had a PCB warning for decades, but this new
warning on stocked trout is new. In fact the Mass. common wisdom, touted by
DFW people, is that the only safe fish are the hatchery trout. Taint so
safe after all,
