Of eating, as in small fishy things

Canned goods can harbor some of the best snacks, especially when considering fishy things. I remember warmly my Father opening up cans of sardine fillets in oil or tomato sauce. My Mother enjoyed the octopus in ink.
I broke with tradition mainly because I like to eat more of a main meal and less of snack. Over the recent years though, I've gone back to fish in tins, but mostly anchovies. The reason for that is twofold. First, if I make a homemade pizza, it will have some anchovy on it. Second, I'll put it olives for drinks.
Over time, my dealing with canned anchovies has gotten a little less satisfying. Sometimes they are mushy. I mean, how can you screw this up? But lately, they have been more bony. I have tried uber fancy anchovies from gourmet mail order places, but once I found ones I liked, they would run out of stock and replace them with equivalents "of their choice." Sorry, they aren't much equivalents.
Just wondering if someone else has had this particularly grueling trialand what they did.
Cheers!
Dan
