Just one possibility for how to go land aggression with fish. Fish are always worth fighting for, even with maps on which most of the aggression will take place on land. Despite investing into fire galleys to protect your fish, your archers are only slightly delayed and you can reach castle significantly earlier when comparing to the standard archer build. Credits to Hera for this one - see link below.
When generating new maps, randomness in fish placement can mean that your castle time may vary more with this build. Always prioritise deep fish over collecting shore fish with fishing ships.
