"We Ain't Dead Yet"


North Carolina Wildlife resources officials have issued a warning to "Women of childbearing age, from 15 to 44; pregnant and nursing women; and children younger than 15" not to eat Catfish and Bass found in North Carolina waters due to possible high levels of mercury.

HamptonRoads.com published an interesting article on the subject with some interesting quotes from anglers.

"We've been catching and eating bass out of here for years," Robert Lay said.
"We ain't dead yet,"
