In the Catholic Church, fish may be eaten on any day of the year. Some Anglicans and Episcopalians choose to follow Roman Catholic fast and abstinence practices, so such people would presumably not avoid eating fish on religious grounds.

Eastern Orthodox Christians and Oriental Orthodox Christians generally have stricter fast and abstinence rules than Western Christians. Some of these Eastern Church have had abstinence rules may prohibit fish on certain days, including Palm Sunday, and some of them may continue to have these rules in force for their members. Individual Churches may follow abstinence rules that vary from one national church to another within the larger Orthodox Communion or Oriental Orthodox Communion, and the rules may change over time as well.

Roman Catholic AnswerYes. Not eating meat is called the law of abstinence, and it is required by Church law on all Fridays of the year and on Ash Wednesday. As allowed by Pope Paul VI, some countries, the United States, Britain, and I believe, Australia, have allowed something else to be given up on Fridays outside of Lent. As an aside, the law of abstinence has nothing to do with fasting, which limits the amount of food which may be consumed. Although, under current law, the only days fasting is required is on Good Friday and Ash Wednesday. Finally, the law of abstinence (abstaining from meat) is suspended on any feast or solemnity. For instance, the Annunciation, and the feast of St. Joseph usually fall during Lent. If they fall on a Friday, one is required to NOT abstain. All Sundays, including Palm Sunday are considered at least of the rank of Feasts and thus neither abstinence nor fasting is permitted on any Sunday.
