Last two times I bought fresh fish from WF...I returned it b/c it was NOT fresh.
I don’t mind paying *more* for meat and fish...if the quality is there. Never did, never will.
But I’m giving up on their fish dept.
The fruit/vegetables at WF are not cheaper than a supermarket...and the quality is not appreciatively better. If you shop the seasons and pay attention, you’ll do better at a good supermarket to pinch pennies.
Growing your own is the best.
Best to give up hope on ALL supermarket fish depts. As you know, fresh seafood must be kept UNDER ice at 28 deg.
All seafood depts I’ve seen always keep the fish on TOP of the ice, allowing the fish to begin to rot and thus the “fishy” smell where there should be NO smell if the fish was truly fresh.

My city has a large Vietnamese population and their markets have the freshest and cheapest fish in the city.. I think their supplier(s) are relatives that commercial fish.
