ELI5: How did cats develop a taste for fish? It would seem like a very odd natural prey for them especially considering they don't like water.

My cat fucking loves fish and all those little fancy cat foods are like salmon and tuna and halibut and stuff but Id think cats wouldn't like fish at all as it's wouldn't normally be a viable food source for them.

Cats don't have a very sophisticated sense of taste.  What they like is determined almost purely by smell.  That's why anything that is oily and has a strong protein smell attracts cats (that's one of the reason they like ear wax.  It apparently smells better than it tastes)
