The fish is a plaice. The board layout looks similar to [Cribbage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cribbage). There are different board layout to it, but wikipedia has one that looks like your fish. I'm saying similar since I'm unfamiliar with the game itself and there seems to be 4 little extra holes in your fish.

The Google search term I used was `peg 60 holes` and from there the first few images already returned similar ordered ones as on your fish.
