Common Fish Parasites, Animation

So this animation has been pretty much ready to go for a while but I've gotten into the nasty habit of making videos and not uploading them.

Anyway here's a little animated run down of the more common parasites found in freshwater fish. Hopefully it's good for a chuckle.

Nailed it!

Great vid about an unpleasant topics.

Thanks Koke.

Great job KM..

Love this one. Thankfully I have rarely seen them in my harvests.

Well done, thank you

Somewhat hard to envision a 30 foot long poop snake.

Thanks, Muskyhunter. I had to look at too many pics of nasty things while putting this together. Still these parasites are pretty tame compared to the other nasty worms out there. Don't look up mango worms.

Yeah, it's not too often I see them. I find that older fish tend to be the ones with the tapeworms. Yellow grubs I have seen a good few times throughout my life but only occasionally on Nipissing. I have seen a few fish in small lakes that are so covered in black spots that you would think their skin is black.

Lol. Oh man...They seem so fragile I wouldn't think that they could hold together over 30 feet. Crazy stuff.

Safe FOOD HANDLING is the key.

Very true. Some people refuse to eat wormy fish but infected fish are very edible with proper food handling and cooking.
