Hi,
Discharge of any type since 4 months from anal region is not a good indication. It can be due to sexual as well as nonsexual reasons both. If you had gone for any type unprotected sexual anal intercourse then can be more possibility of chlamydial infection in clear fishy anal discharge.
I suggest you to meet a proctologist to check for any anal pathology and go for battery of tests for Sexually Transmitted Diseases.
