Catholics are never required to eat fish. They are required to abstain from meat on Fridays during Lent, and many observe this practice year-round. Fish isn't considered meat in the Lent tradition, so it has become the meal of choice on Friday. This is also why Macdonalds introduced the Filet-O-Fish burger.

Why can you not eat meat on Good Friday?
Catholic AnswerCatholics abstain from flesh meat on Good Friday, although fish are permitted. Abstinence is applicable to everyone over 14 years of age. Anyway between 21 and 60 must also fast which means that they may take only one meal on that day, and two snacks, which together do not equal one full meal.
