I'd have to agree with the ever popular sockeye and red spring. Trout from lakes at the 'right' lakes at the right time of year can be good too. I don't really care for any of the other salmon species. I won't even eat coho unless I'm out of the reds.

I have eaten fish from all over Canada & the US, and Walleye, Lingcod, & Halibut are by far the best.

  I like Snapper or "Yellow Eye" but it has to be right out of the water. Early season shrimp fed rainbow is great too.

As soon as I can afford to go fishing everyday, it's time to retire.

ahi tuna is the same as yellowfin tuna, although in the USA, some even call the bigeye tuna  an ahi tuna. .

mahi mahi from what i remember are a large, strange blunt-headed fish that belongs in the dolphin family. they used to weird me out when we'd get them  in at a restaurant i used to work at long ago. they were blue/green and yellow and tasted pretty good.
