The fish is not for eating. That's what Newark officials are saying to residents about the fish that have washed onto the streets following recent flooding.

The fish were caught or found in flooded sewers, rivers, streams, and ponds after heavy rains doused the city.

The alert was issued Monday by the city's Health and Community Wellness Department.

Officials urged people to not trap, catch or eat any fish caught on the streets because it's unclear how "exposure to elements outside of their natural domains will affect them."

There are several ponds and lakes in the region where fishing is permitting.

I would not eat them but I would be fishing from my porch!
 
Well, they had tags on the toilets at OHSU CHH reminding people not to drink from the toilet, so people eating sewer carp should not come as a surprise.

Why are you not supposed to drink from the toilets there? Are they dirty or something??!!

Seriously though place only put up a sign if there is a consistent problem going on....I cannot imagine just sitting in a meeting and saying "ya know I think we should warn people to not drink for the crappers".
 
back in the day, i knew people who would catch crappie from the sewers. I remember feeling like a idiot with a little rod with a line going into the sewer-trap in the street and pulling out little crappie from it.
