They are common in many of the drum fish species at times. But they are just visually unappealing, Theypose no health danger,and simply disappear when they are cooked in the fish.

Good read about 'spaghetti' worms @ http://www.seagrantfish.lsu.edu/reso...hettiworms.htm

Quote:

The fact that a spaghetti worm may live several years (up to 6 or 7) may surprise many fishermen, since they often claim that more fish are infected in one season than another. This may possibly be due to different populations of trout with different infection rates, moving up and down in a marsh system seasonally.

The number of trout carrying worms seems to be directly related to the characteristics and quality of the water in which the trout live. In general, the saltier the water and the less polluted it is, the higher the levels of infection are. This may be due to either one of the intermediate host's or the larval worm's needs for saline, unpolluted waters.
