Spawning
Fish can be found in river and ocean biomes. All types of fish appear in oceans, but only salmon appears in rivers. They can also spawn in player-created bodies of water, as long as they are within river or ocean biomes. Upon death, they drop the raw equivalent of their meat, with a chance to drop a bone or bone meal.

In Java Edition, fish do not spawn in bubble columns. Bedrock Edition does permit fish to spawn in bubble columns.

Fish can spawn between 24 (cylindrical) and 64 (spherical) blocks away from the player.
