John, my 2nd wife, God rest her Soul, was terrified of fish bones. Saw your reply on this thread , one year we took up Kokanee's in Colorado ,snagging, what a blast. Canned hundreds of pounds , when she saw all the little bones melt away when pressured, that was only way she would preserve fish from then on, she called the end product Salmon Patties of course, but all others were burgers, "Trout Burgers", etc. We both preferred this way over filleting . No more fear of bones, we ate fish much more often.
