you're missing out buddy, there are plenty of places with delicious fish that are safe to eat. go find a pond with some clean perch in it you will thank yourself.

Re: Some fish consumption advice needed
 
I seriously doubt that any catfish, unless seriously stressed with obvious signs, would accumulate enough toxins to pose any significant threat, especially after a single meal. I dont think that a meal of a fish in the several pound range would have lived long enough to reach a hazardous level. Even fish higher up the food chain, say a bluefish, can be consumed on a sporadic basis. Although give me the catfish any day!
