Don Gibson has been fishing since his late teens. He has fished in the Florida Keyes, the Florida Gulf and Florida Atlantic. Needless to say he knows a thing or two about how to pick fresh fish. Here are some tips:

If the heads are on the fish, look at the eyes to see if they are cloudy or clear. Clearer eyes suggest a fresher fish.
Check the flexibility of the fish. Is it more stiff or flexible? The flexibility is a good thing.
A soft and soggy fish is not good. Firm and bouncey is what you want.
It has to be somewhat fishy but no overbearing smell. Sometimes the fish smell is an indication of freshness.
