A bit controversial I know but when and why did people in this country stop eating freshwater fish?
Last night I was chatting to a friend and we have both in the past eaten freshwater fish that we have caught.
Throughout the world people eat freshwater fish so why don’t we?
The Victorians had gudgeon and bleak picnics where the fish went straight from the river into the pan. Up until the 1950’s or later many fishing books had recipes on how to cook your catch.
We are quite happy to fish from our polluted seas so why not how rivers and lakes.
With a never-ending growth in population in this country will farm reared freshwater fish be back on the menu some time soon. After all at the moment it is a virtually untapped source of food.
