Hey lads, anyone seen this in fillets before.
This was in one side of an 8 bar. Looked a lot different to worms ive seen in fish before
Flesh was still firm and clean

Yep, seen it
We had it in a 37kg 8 bar caught off Jurien Bay, but the smaller ones were ok. I cut out most of the real bad bits, but ate the rest and it was fine. I spoke to a knowledgeable Fisheries Research guy who said it wouldn’t hurt you....and it didn’t.

found that in a redthroat
found that in a redthroat caught up at Exmouth last year..., wasn't game to eat it, but a mate who lives up there and works for fisheries said it was fine....im a bit of a chicken tho... from what I understand, freezing the fillets can often help kill anything, and then just make sure is well cooked might be wise...
