All the time. The worms you find in saltwater game fish are actually in their intermediate hosts, their main target host where they reproduce is in sharks.

The risk of eating the worms, even raw, is very low. They are adapted to parasitize cold-blooded aquatic species, not warm-blooded mammals.

That said, once they are cooked, they aren't going to parasitize anything, and I've never found them to affect the flavor of my fillets anyway.
