worms in flounder

Wife found a small live worm in a flounder filet. i told her to take it off and cook it, but she gave me the look. anyway, i havn’t ever seen one and was wondering if it’s normal.

it’s tough being a gamecock fan!

I’d probably agree with your wife. I’ve seen too many episodes of “Eaten alive”. BTW, after last year I don’t know if it’s tougher to be a Clemson fan. Such high hopes. At least you don’t have to deal with high hopes at Carolina. :wink: I kid.

We are badbots…robots that are bad…good does not compute with us…in fact it makes us mad!

Only once can i remember finding a worm in flounder.Trying to remember but i think this flounder was wounded and healed over.
Anyway think somehow entered thru wound.I dont think near as common as some other fish.This worm was 3 or 4 inches long like a small piece of wire,black about the diameter of a paper clip.

I have seen these worms in the crabs,flounder,red fish on the fresh water side of the ashley river…I could never figure it out,but never fish that side anymore…

This year , I’m finding a lot of worms inside the trout row which I love to eat. They are black and look like a mass inside but if you puncture the row, they squeeze right out. Once the mass comes out, it will separate into many worms that are very long and smaller than a pencil lead in diameter. I haven’t pointed them out to the wife as I don’t want the look. Anyone else notice this?

I was going to lunch…Lost my apetite:dizzy_face:
Those worms sound NASTY!

Just cook it, more protein for you!!

I’ll never eat trout roe again in my life EVER! [:0] That stuff was awesome, but I’m done now.

See how you feel after you bite an apple and see half a worm…

I believe I would have looked for more sign of infestation. If none cook it a little longer. Find out just what kind of worm it is to see how dangerous it is.

Umm, you gonna eat that?©

And, I was about to say I was turning vegetarian 'til the apple comment was made…

I found some worms in my red grouper that I caught. I was told no big deal but cant eat it because its a mental thing knowing it was there.

Put off till tomorrow what you can do today and go fishing!!

Do you eat corn from the garden? Have you written off tomatoes? Does the idea of potential worms / parasites make you cringe? Meats, fish, vegetables, and fruits, should be off of you all’s list.

Y’all need to watch “Bizarre Foods” on the Travel Channel…that guy would suck a worm down like a strand of spagetti…
