Fresh fish may be stored 1 or 2 days. If it must be kept longer, you may (1) wrap and freeze it immediately, or (2) cook and then refrigerate it for later use in recipes calling for cooked fish.
Check stored fish for freshness just before you use it. Even if it was fresh when received, it may not be fresh after a few days in storage.
