Smoking fish in same smoker as meat?

I’ve seen some say if you run it hot for a bit after smoking, the fish won’t taint the next cook. Others say the fish taints the smoker until you do a full clean of the smoker. I’m terrified to smoke fish and taint future cooks, but I’d love to give it a try. What’s your experience?

I smoked some salmon in our Char-Griller combo smoker and the next week some pork and did not notice any oddities.

Same. I did a few salmon fillers in my Monument smoker and then did a variety of beef and pork smokes afterwards. No taint noted.

Done salmon often and never had an issue on my offset.
