TLDR

The Bigmouth Sleeper Gobiomorous dormitor, an important piscivorus sport fish, accumulated low levels of organic contaminants in edible muscle tissue and may be most suitable for human consumption island‐wide; only mercury at one site (an urban location) exceeded EPA's consumption limit of 3 meals/month for this species.
