The mercury contamination is not a good thing, but the recommended ingestion limits are very reasonable and show that the water quality of the BWCA/Quet. is very good.  Take a look at some of the lakes near your home for a comparisson.  We tend to eat fish for 2-3 meals on a 10 day trip, try to keep the eating size rather than the trophy size, and plan meals so that we never are required to eat a fish meal.  Our major consumtion is smallmouth bass, which are an invasive species.  Therefore, I don't ever feel bad for catching as many as we can eat, which is certainly less than the legal limit.

I don't begrudge Stu about his opinion.  I bet he feels that he's providing good information and hopes that people will be responsible with that info.
