Question:

I bought some fresh fish from a shop near the coast a few weeks back?

when we got home,we put it in the fridge ready to cook that night. when we took it out it was covered in little red worms. i phoned a local mongers up and he said it was normal and they get them in every fish,but they said they hold them in front of an ultra violet light and pick them out. he said they were harmless,but we slung them in the bin. he couldnt remember the names of the worms..do any of you know what they are called? its enough to put you off fish for life..
