It has a self timer which as siluremark alluded to is poor. You need an intervalometer and the m50 has no port to accept one.
It's the sole reason I got the M6 instead if the m50.
You can get closer with a 32 over a 50 👍

If you'd have the 50mm 10 feet away, you'd have a 30mm 6 feet away. Actual distance would depend on your preference but that's a fair bit closer

How are you holding the fish and pressing the button, and is it on show in the picture?
Sometimes I get annoyed with the interval timer as you have to set it to take a lot of shots to give yourself a chance when a fish won't play ball. I have a wired remote I've made a housing for so I can press it with my knee, but I use it with the interval timer on a short delay. It just avoids getting multiple shots of me trying to control an angry carp, let's me set it to shoot just three pics, and I don't have to hit the button for each shot. I can also set it for more shots and just cancel it after a couple of decent shots by hitting the button again. It focuses for each shot with the interval timer too, whether I set it for 1 or 999 shots
Plus it means I can use a longer lens without having to step away from the fish, particularly useful when you want to obliterate the background so you don't give the location away
