Over 200 million Americans could be drinking water contaminated with PFAS, and these contaminants bioaccumulate in freshwater fish, including bass, affecting safety. While all bass species have non-toxic meat, their edibility is heavily influenced by factors like habitat, size, and pollution levels, meaning not all bass are safe to eat.

According to recent NOAA Fisheries regulations for the Atlantic, private anglers typically have a daily bag limit of three bluefish, while for-hire vessel passengers can keep five. Understanding how many bluefish per person is a critical detail for responsible and legal recreational fishing.
