Has anybody ever seen this before? I looked on both sides of the tail, and those seed looking things are inside it.

      @diggerman to my knowledge the fish are still perfectly good to eat, so long as they are properly cooked

      Not quite those are "rice breast" or Sarcocystosis which pass from duck to predator to feces to invertebrate back to duck

      Hmm, are they the same type of parasite that are sometimes in a ducks breast meat? @cowboy713

      Where they grow inside the bird's throat and are then released back into the water when the bird drinks or eats. @diggerman @huntin_dude @robby_scott

      They are a yellow grub (Clinostomum complanatum) they are the larval stage of a parasitic fluke worm, the fish are just an intermediate host, they must be ingested ...more by a water bird (a heron for example
