Deutsch term

Fisch nach fang

Non-PRO Deutsch > Englisch Sonstige Kochen/Kulinarisches
This is on a menu.
I understand it means they serve the fish that is available at certain times depending on what has been caught that day/week, but I can't think of a phrase that captures this in English.
'Freshly caught fish' could be any kind of fish, just freshly caught, and would not limit the selection of fish to something dictated by nature/fishermen (which I assume the restaurant wants to come across as a good thing, comparable to 'seasonal vegetables').
I'd be grateful for ideas! Thanks!

This sounds... a little bit odd on a menu - have you never seen "Vegetables according to season" on a menu? So why ever not "Fish according to catch" (or season)?

I'm afarid I'd wonder where the 'catch' was....
Trudy Peters Nov 13, 2013:
How about "catch of the day"?
Ines R. Nov 13, 2013:
fangfrischer Fisch es ist so wie Du es beschrieben hast, eigentlich müsste es heissen "fangfrischer Fisch" >freshly caught
