The narration of the given sentence can be changed as shown below:

The otter said that it had a few fish.

It was a statement direct speech; so we used the reporting verb 'said'. We use conjunction ‘that’ when we join the indirect speech with the reporting verb. First person pronoun ‘I’ was changed into third person pronoun ‘it’ as the subject was 'otter'.  tense uniformity has to be maintained while changing direct speech into indirect speech.

The otter said that it had few fishes.

EXPLANATION:  

  • Here, the given sentence is in 'direct speech' with the quotations. But when we are changing it into indirect speech the quotations would be removed, the conjunction that would be added to make it in a 'reported speech' and the first person I would be changed into second or third person along with the change in verb that is Had.
  • In this case it would be changed into a third person It, and so the change in narration would be: The otter said that it had few fishes.
