If you buy a whole salmon, or if you buy salmon steaks, you will have to
worry about bones. If you buy salmon that looks like this, there should
not be any bones.

The salmon will become thin towards the tail end of the fish, so just
fold it under the fish to make that end a little thicker, this way it
will not dry out when you cook it.
