Lake Nacimiento Fish Advisory:

The Public Health Department would like the public to be aware of the Safe Eating Guidelines for fish taken from Lake Nacimiento. Most types of fish from Lake Nacimiento contain high levels of mercury, due to mercury in the sediment in some areas of the lake. The County Public Health Department provides recommendations to reduce the risks from exposure to methylmercury in fish from the entire lake, including the Narrows.    Posted February 20, 2007.  Still in effect as of July 25, 2008.
