To check for freshness on whole fish, always look for clear eyes and also bright red gills. Once its been cleaned i always give it a sniff, shouldnt smell real fishy and definetly not ammoniated like rick said, except for shark which has a natural amonnia smell when its fresh. Also i always feel the fillets, shouldnt have a slimy feel to it, also the firmness. It should be firm to the touch, not mushy. Its definetly all about how its been handled , like the other guys have said. Handled from the time its caught, transported to retailer/wholesaler and if you left it in your car for an hour on the ride home unrefridgerated.
