You almost certainly could have kept the herring. Atlantic (sea) herring are legal. Both kinds of river herring are prohibited, but they are easy to tell apart. Look at a side-by-side and then next time, you'll know the differences to make sure you can keep it. They are great smoked, but also fantastic in a frying pan or quickly cooked on the grill.
