    • They are probably referring to the aroma of fish. Some people don't care for that.
    Fish should have a clean smell to it. It should smell of the ocean. When it smells "fishy"....throw it back.
    Indeed DUH. But when I say fish tastes too "fishy", what I mean is that it tastes too much like it smells, salty and metallic. There are a great many fish who do not taste as it smells. Like Grouper tastes like pork, but smells like fish.
    Some fish are stronger in flavor than others.For example,flounder is a mild one.Then you have blackfish which is very strong,aka "fishy".
    I think fish smells fishy when it's getting almost too old to eat.
    Yeah, and just how large can jumbo shrimp really be?
