good call stone shot. i trawl my own prawn and shrimp for bait but mostly for eating inside cork harbour. never been sick from them so tried shellfish, ie mussels and clams. a handfull was enough to have me sick for days.
if you want shellfish to eat head away to the coast away from harbours and estuaries.
