An old Norwegian friend has mentioned Lutefisk with the same sort of warning. He ate it with some kind of potato bread as I recall.

Tough one. 

West Australian Dhu Fish I will put this up against any table in the world. It is spectacular. They can grow up to 20kg. Fillets retail here in Perth for around 120 notes per kilo. Fish fillets from this species are the only ones  you can actually freeze in my opinion.  

Southern Blue Fin Tuna. A five year world wide would be good. 

West Australian King George Whiting...50cm and above are not uncommon at all in this neck. Delicious. 

Long snout Boar Fish. Unique flavour delicate. 

Bluebone grouper. Sweet Jesus.

I could put in the smaller stuff quite easily. Freshly caught sardines, white bait fried whole with a beer just beautiful, herring sushimi yep, breadcrumbs or smoked fresh magnificent. In fact, I could happily sit down and talk about this topic all day long.

There is a fantastic King of the Hill episode called "Revenge of the Lutefisk." 

Halibut

Striped Bass

Yellowfin tuna (I do quite like bluefin but will only eat if it’s sustainably sourced. It is getting easier to find retail fortunately, since I don't really trust what most restaurants say). This I only really like as sushi, and not the belly either - I can enjoy the chu-toro (semi-fatty belly) but am apparently the only person who doesn't care for O-toro - too fatty for me and always tastes strange. 

Scallops (I know it's not a fish)

Chilean sea bass (aka the Patagonian toothfish) - pricey but incredibly easy to make, almost impossible to overcook it unless you're trying
