It has been known for a long time that US streams and lakes are contaminated with highly toxic fluorinated compounds known as PFAS.  This means that fresh water fish are also contaminated..  But nothing is done about it, because the polluting entities control the EPA and use it as a protection agency.

From a recent report: “The Environmental Protection Agency has known about the health hazards of PFAS for decades but has failed to limit PFAS discharges into the air and water or set cleanup standards. The agency released a woefully inadequate PFAS action plan in 2019 that failed to include deadlines for action, and the EPA has made little progress.”  https://www.ewg.org/interactive-maps/pfas_contamination/
