Yes - cool it as quickly as possible

As long as it is covered and refrigerated cooking a day before is fine.

I'd have thought so but wrap it well so it doesn't dry out?

I'm having a crowd over to the garden for a family event on Saturday. I'm planning to piachva whole salmon. Could I poach and prepare it on Friday and then just dress it with cucumber on Saturday morning?
