Q: How long can I store my fresh seafood in the freezer?

 

A: It is recommended that you store any cooked shellfish in the freezer for no more than 3 months (and “cooked” is a keyword!). You can freeze oily fish and smoked fish for about 3 months, as well. Non-oily fish can be frozen for 4-6 months. Oysters should only stay in the freezer for 6 weeks or less.
