Need recommendations on Fish

Tilapia has a mild flavor, but the flesh tends to be a little coarser grained. Though if you don't have any experience with fish you may not notice.

Basically you're looking for a coldwater white fish, like cod, lingcod, halibut, flounder, etc. Mahi Mahi and swordfish are good choices if you have that option.

For freshwater fish, if you could find walleye that might be your best overall choice. Striper or white bass/white bass hybrids also might work well for you.

These 'white' fish all have little flavor on their own; they're kind of like mushrooms or white meat chicken, meaning they take on the flavor of the seasonings that you put on them.

To remove most/all of the fishy flavor and smell, squeezing a little lemon over it just before serving usually does the trick.

The easiest or most trouble-free way to cook fish is by baking, either in foil or parchment paper.

One trick to remove most of the fishy smell while cooking is to add a couple tablespoons of white wine to the fish before putting in the oven.
