Advisories issued for some fish at Summersville Lake
By The Associated Press
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Consumption advisories have been issued for black bass, walleye and flathead catfish caught at Summersville Lake because of mercury concerns.

The advisories released today are part of the 2009 West Virginia Sport Fish Consumption Advisory compiled by the state.

The advisories recommend limiting consumption of all sizes of black bass and flathead catfish caught at Summersville Lake to one meal a month. Walleye consumption should be limited to six meals per year.

Walleye caught elsewhere, along with sauger and black bass larger than 12 inches, should be limited to two meals per month.

A previous statewide advisory that recommended limiting brown trout to two meals per month was reduced to one meal per week.
