I would suggest pouched salmon rather than canned for backpacking. Don't need to carry around a can opener and the pouches don't have excess moisture in them. There are also Ready-To-Eat Meal Kits from Bumble Bee and other brands. These might be worth looking into. Ready-To-Eat

Can vs. pouch for backpacking is something I could write a book about lol - basically, either are fine and pretty much equivalent in terms of weight in reality, especially if you have the pull-top can (and my swiss army knife has a can opener). I'm more curious about what kinds of meals I can make using canned/pouched fish, because aside from grilling up a fillet I don't have much experience with fish. I use canned/pouched chicken to make some pretty gourmet meals out in the bush!

They're canned tilapia filets in sauces from Bumble Bee. Anyone try these yet?
They come in these flavors:
Curry Sauce
Mango Chutney
Teriyaki Sauce
Tomato Basil

Thank you so much for posting this! I wasn't even aware these were out and will now be looking for them.

On smoked Oysters, I am in love with Ekone Oysters here in the US. $5.50 a can. But oh...my...goodness (I'd also post you one of those, if you'd like a try...they are that good).
I am unashamedly on two-cans-a-day of smoked oysters at the moment in addition to my other canned fish.
Tomorrow, I will be eating:
(with oats for breakfast) Ekone canned smoked oysters with lemon and pepper and Vital Choice canned Sardines
(with salad for lunch) Skipanon canned steelhead trout with East Point canned shrimp and Ekone canned smoked oysters.
Here is my stash:

I love how tidy your stash is Ian!
This is a very educational thread so thanks for sharing. I really like canned fish and had no idea of how much variety was available. Think I need to branch out a bit from my usual selections.

Vital Choice have just produced a canned wild sockeye salmon "bellies".
http://www.vitalchoice.com/shop/pc/v...idcategory=222
It's pricey. It's probably a fad. It's over 10 bucks a can. Am I going to try it?
F@ck yeah!

And I found these today at a supermarket. A new release by Wild Planet. I have only ever had white anchovies in Europe. Can't wait to try them.
