Default should I eat wild salmon sushi from a reputable fish monger?

IMHO, their salmon is often pretty good but I am suspicious
because they are prone to the usual supermarket dodge of cutting
off the heads of trout "for convenience" (makes it impossible to
check freshness by looking at the eyes!) I am generally
compelled to buy trout at what is the most expensive store in
town: Balducci's.
