The way it is served is different, but otherwise why not?

What I wonder about with the green herring is what happeed to the
bones. When I get fresh herring in that size range, it has forked
bones like its larger relative, the American Shad.

Are North Sea herring less bony. or do they fillet them in some way
that avoids the bones?
