You do know that mod_jk2 has been deprecated for almost two years?
Pretty much all the useful stuff has been implemented in mod_jk in the
interim.

You probably don't want the two <Host> entries to use the same appBase,
unless you really want the apps deployed in both of them at the same
time.  You don't say what level of Tomcat you're using, but with current
versions (5.0 and beyond), the above will get the app deployed twice
under fish.org, once as the default, once as FishApp.  The doc for
current levels also recommends quite strongly against putting <Context>
elements inside server.xml.

You need to have a separate manager app for each <Host>.  In current
levels, this would be accomplished by putting a manager.xml file in
conf/Catalina/fish.org as well as the usual conf/Catalina/localhost.
However, unless the overlap of the deployment directories of the two
<Host>s is straightened out, I suspect it will never work reliably.
