How long does
fresh fish last?
Fresh fish is highly perishable; freezer time varies by fatty or lean species.
What to do
Store very cold in leak-proof packaging.
Do not take a chance
Discard if temperature control was lost; smell is not a safety test.
These times are guidance, not a guarantee. Initial freshness, preparation, packaging and actual temperature all matter. Never taste questionable food to test safety.
