trivet commented on the word bottle-arse squid
I found some DIY directions, but according to the wiki "older bars" are happy to conduct the ceremony.
Here is what wikitravel had to say:
The use of an actual fish is rare, though, especially since the introduction of the cod moritorum. Kissing a real codfish is discouraged by many, not to mention possibly unhygienic, so an imitation cod, made of wood, plastic, or rubber is used.

That's the same as kissing a stuffed fish. (No offense, reesetee.) Not real cod, not real screech-in.
Yes, reesetee, we're still going. Nunju worry (as my nonna used to say).
Trivet? Gird your loins! We're off!

reesetee commented on the word bottle-arse squid
Hey! My nonna used to say "nunja you worry" too!
I'm with c_b. Not real cod, not real screech-in.
