I buy fresh fish from the seafood area at HEB or Kroger. I usually buy wild caught salmon, such as king salmon which has a rich flavor, or sockeye (red) salmon which has a stronger bolder flavor. I will also buy Atlantic salmon which is pretty popular and has a good flavor because of its fat content. I noticed the sockeye is different, and you will notice if you are not used to eating it, so I recommend the more common Atlantic salmon, or King salmon if available.
