Really?
That seems extreme since a s-ton of radioactive water has been / is being released into the Pacific.
I've read that they expect a lot of sea life to become inedible, could heavily damage the fish market.
A couple months ago i went fishing down in Illwaco and when we got back from the charter a Fish and Game guy was using a Geiger Counter to scan all the salmon.

shell fish industry in NW is already seeing significant decline...mostly related to climate change.

The fish and game guys use metal detectors to find tags on salmon--they are planted in the head.

most of the crap circulating around the web is just that--crap that paranoid people make up.

There are some studies going on but they'll take time. But ya, we don't know as much as we'd like.

I actually wondered if it was something like a metal detector looking for tags. Must be tracking migration ect.
I figured it would have been Wilbur to set me straight since he practically sleeps with fish.

Thanks for the info too
