There were a few reports of those brown fillets last year in the central basin! Forgot what they said caused it but it was reported several times on the OGF community Lake Erie discussion board. Will check a couple of other sites to see if I can dig anything up on the subject!

From 44 years in the medical community, if I learned nothing else about food, it is: When in doubt.....THROW IT OUT!!! Following that simple rule could save you a trip to the ER.
