Yes, the ocean would be devoid of fish. I wonder what kind of world my twisted little Smeagol would have set up.

My guess is that the Ring would have eventually betrayed and/or abandoned Lord Smeagol, just as it once betrayed Isildur and later abandoned Gollumn the first time. The opportunity would have a risen for the Ring to enslave someone of greater power, and that would have been the end of the Imperial Fish Fest.
