Fishing Waters

Although herring is a  round bodied fish belonging to the family Clupeidae, they generally have a slim, cylindrical shape with a silvery skin tinged with blue/green tones  and no scales.

 

They are a seawater (marine) fish found in the North Atlantic, the Baltic Sea, the North Pacific and the Mediterranean. Classed as an "oily" fish,  herring are relatively small fish reaching sizes of  approximately 26cm/10-inches long and up to 450g/1lb in weight though some can grow slightly larger. In  Europe and America they are often salted and smoked. Pickled herring is a popular item in Europe including preparations such as such as roll mops and soused,  and in the Jewish cuisine. Also popular in Europe, kippers are split, smoked herring, bloaters are whole smoked herrings, and buckling are gutter hot smoked herrings.

 

Suitable substitutes for herring include Mackerel, Sardines, Pilchards and Trout.
