Be very tight before the flop in these fishy games. Play for the nuts only, after the flop. That is the best two-sentence advice I can give you.

I don't think these sentences are consistent. While I agree that playing for the nuts against fish is the ideal strategy, I think you loosen up against fish pre-flop and play hands with nut draws that you might not play against credible players. Hands such as A-4-9-J and A-5-9-J may become playable where the ace is suited, for example, provided you are in somewhat late position. If you play too tight, by the time you get into a hand the fishes' [is that English?] money will have been taken by others.
