They are Salmon or trout eggs used only for fishing. They are usually preserverd with Borax.

From: Tom Olenio <tolenio@sentex.net> This year I saw a button on the vending machine for "spawn". I thought spawn was worm egg casings, and bought a can. Boy was I dumb!
They turned out to be fish eggs. Did not figure that out till I was home, opened the can and found this inside;
What can I do with spawn, other than fishing bait? Can they go in the rain barrel or drainage pond and give me some mosquito eating fish? Or should I just bury them in the compost and let them rot?
Everything else that comes out of that vending machine is alive, so I assume the eggs (spawn) are alive. I could just be having another attack of dumbness.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Tom
