Who do you ask? There's conflicting information. Plus rivers are long and it may be safe upstream but not downstream. Is there a government office I can just call. If so is that the one useful thing the government does?

This river I'm looking at one site says there's poop and insecticides in the water. The other says the fishing is great!.

How do I get to the bottom of this without spending years studying chemistry and biochemistry and testing the water myself?

Thank you, I was reading and reading and thought I might have to post fish and game but thank you for doing it. I can't believe the other responses, it was like reading reddit replies without the faggots.

Honestly I was like wait. IF you fish or hunt, you had to deal with your states fish and game. So obviously they would be the best to ask.
