Any heat in the fish will be conducted in to the thermometer before it can measure the temperature accurately. I would suggested heating the thermometer in hot water before inserting it into the fish. | |

Do you get a reasonable temperature or does it seem to be "averaging" in the air? Sometimes cheaper thermometers aren't just sensitive right at the tip of the probes, so they'll work okay on bigger things where the whole probe is in the food, but not for small things. | |
