Do you prefer eating fish or shellfish?

[TDAS04]

Fish by far.

[beaver2.0]

None.  Both are disgusting, except tuna and calamari, which are alright.

[Mr. Smith]

Lean Fish

Shellfish have the better flavor, but fish are meatier and usually bigger.

Why isn't there an option for "Both are freaking delicious"?

[dead0man]

shellfish, not close

[Figueira]

"Shellfish," but as a biology nerd I can't help but feel that both are silly terms. Especially shellfish.

[The Last Northerner]

Shellfish but I love both.

[White Trash]

While there are some types of fish I can't stand, there is not a single shellfish dish that I won't eat.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Both are alright. Voted "Both are nasty" due to lack of positive "Both" option.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Shellfish, but I do love sashimi with good fresh fishes.

[dax00]

Shellfish. My faves are mussels, scallops, and abalone - in that order.
My favorite fish is turbot, closely followed by sole. And not many things beat fresh sushi - personal faves include red snapper and eel.

[Sir Mohamed]

Both are great.

[Santander]

I'm allergic to fish, so the choice is rather obvious here.

[RINO Tom]

I only really eat Talapia, so fish.

[Classic Conservative]

I don't like much fish, I find the texture wierd but fish because I like a good cod or haddock.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

The only fish I like is smoked mullet.

[Ban my account ffs!]

You will find that cod or walleye are nearly identical in their subtle, non-fishy, but very flakey goodness.

[Crumpets]

I love salmon and I'm allergic to scallops, so I have to go with fish.

[This account no longer in use.]

Fish is average, but I will never understand why anybody eats shellfish.

[Minstral]

.... I like most fish but I think that shellfish is something that people are a bit more picky about (like I am). Crab, Lobster, and Shrimp are all good but when it comes to oysters and scallops I will tend to not touch them. I do like a good clam chowder though.

[Ban my account ffs!]

Shrimp, crab, and lobster are the kinda thing I have to eat in small bites because it's very rich.  I do enjoy clams, though I've never had mussels or oysters.

Fish... is complicated.  If it tastes "fishy".. no.  None.  Unless you overpower it with sauce or smoke.  But fried walleye or other whitefish (esp in seasoned flour, egg, and crushed soda crackers) is a real treat.  So is tuna (canned or in sushi).  And I have a complicated relationship with eel.  Cooked/candied with a sauce it's great. 

Salmon is a tough one.. it has to be smoked or cured with herbs and lemon.  Plain raw salmon is too fishy (fish fat is fishy... go figure).

Really? Salmon is a favorite of mine, so I don't really understand it having an overpowering taste. Or of fish having a too strong "fishy" taste. I guess that come with living on the pacific and being close to the Sockeye Salmon fishing grounds.

I think Salmon has a pretty different taste from other fish. I was raised on a costal city and ate seafood and fish all my life but didn't have Salmon until I was a teenager. Big difference IMO. It doens't mix well with the same sauces as white fish.

No doubt about that. My Grandfather is actually a commercial fisherman (he still captains his own ship in his mid eighties), so I grew up with with Salmon in particular (one of my past favorites was smoked salmon that was actually partially frozen). You don't tend to mix two fish like that as they would be too different.
