I was planning on answering the previous post when I finished my experiment in the lab this afternoon.
Glad to see that Fish and Game is on the ball and monitoring the board to clear up these questions for us. Couldn't have said it any better myself!! Thanks John!
FYI there in Sunapee salmon also. I can usually tell from the condition of the fish if it has the worms. It seems there more prevalent at Winni, just my observation. But it's probably just a numbers game.
Tapeworms in salmon are nothing new,I have found tapeworms in Lake Winni salmon for as long as I can remember (40+ years of fishing the lake.) This is the reason why I fillet salmon vs cooking them in the round. If you are going to cook them in the round I would recommend NOT checking the stomach contents.
Also tapeworms are prevelant in Lake Winni smallmouth bass.
