Description:

Tobiko are flying fish eggs. The eggs are small and firm with a distinct crunch and a robust flavor. There are over 50 species of flying fish throughout the world.

Flying fish are found throughout the world's temperate and tropical oceans.

Little is known about flying fish populations or harvest methods. Fortunately they reproduce quickly and prolifically, making them more resilient to fishing pressure, though heavy fishing pressure can still deplete populations. The impacts of the fisheries on habitat and bycatch are unknown.
