In Bruce's worthless opinion (he said it!), the last fish
patties/burgers he made used canned mackerel. Want to talk about
trailer trash? Canned mackerel ranks right up there. IMHO and YMMV.

When I drain the canned salmon I do pick out the bones. It's easy
enough to do with a fork. But I don't freak out over it if there are a
few of the very soft bones still in there when I mash the salmon. Pick
those out with a fork, too.

The recipe is very tasty even without the crushed corn chips. Normally
I just use a little flour to help bind the mixture together with the egg
and minced onion, sometimes minced bell pepper, salt & pepper. The sour
cream if I have some or mayonnaise if I don't. I usually don't have
sour cream so I use mayo. Either way, they're quite tasty.
