It is not yet possible to do this from OBS directly. There's... quirks
with modular repos.

That said, I'm not sure why fish is a module in Fedora. Have you
contacted the Fedora maintainer to see if they intend to keep it
modularized? A lot of content has been moving back from modules to
non-modules in Fedora.

(This, of course, has no impact on RHEL/CentOS, where modularity is
going strong there as it is core to the design...)
