Fresh Fish" refers to a CD-ROM collection of public domain software for the Commodore Amiga, released by Fred Fish starting in 1994 as a culmination of his monthly Amiga disk releases. These CDs were not video games but rather compilations of software, developer materials, and open-source programs submitted by users for sharing and community use, with the first being "Frozen Fish Vol.1".

What it was:

A CD-ROM collection: Instead of a single game, "Fresh Fish" was a series of CD-ROMs containing software for the Amiga computer.

Fred Fish's legacy: It was an extension of Fred Fish's renowned monthly disk series that ran from 1986 to 1994.
