Unless, of course, you live right on the coast where they're fishing. But, yes, I would definitely suggest a change to how we consider these things. Just because something was, historically, peasant food doesn't mean that we should still consider it as such when it's now a luxury. Eating vegetarian is probably still a good idea for fasting, since beans and rice are still economical and feel quite penitent, but king crab legs might just have to go...
Eat vegetarian as much as you can. But do not kill yourself thinking about what you are eating and do not let it consume your life. And if you can't go pure vegetarian, eat pizza with no meat toppings. Fast as best as you can. Make sure you do not let others know you are fasting and do not offend someone by denying their hospitality when they offer you something you are fasting from.
