Bluegill at mantua

[N.E.T.O.]

We called those "anchor worms" in the bass and bluegills from Pelican Lake...and as mentioned above, nearly every fish in that lake had them. Not appetizing at all for me so we never kept fish to eat from that lake. We never knew what they really were called. Not sure if the current population of fish in that lake has them or not since it was treated a couple years ago.

Curiously, Mantua and Pelican have another thing in common...swimmers itch. Might be related?
