Seattle Pier, WA
#13
As a commercial fisher I can say that although the Duwamish waterway is very polluted, the waters of Elliot bay are not that toxic, or the sealife would not be there. These squid have such a short life span that they don't live long enough to soak up as much pollutants as the salmon, cod, and other long lived species around. The shrimping in Elliot Bay is incredible with more shrimp than perhaps any other place in Washington State. As to the smell, that probably does relate to the boat traffic, but I highly doubt that any health effects would result from eating the squid.
