I have to wonder if at the start of Lent some type of fish was spawning in the Sea of Galilee and very easy to catch at that time?
Hence, require it to be eaten and catch it really easy when it comes into shore and collect those shekels and don't have to work for the rest of the year?
It would take some research as to what type of fish are in that lake and when that individual species spawns.
Perhaps this is a place to start that research: What kind of fish did the Risen Christ feed the apostles? (aleteia.org)
