Topless Mermaid Makes a Splash in Seattle

Hit the link for photos. :thumbdown

Wearing little more than a mermaid tail and a sign reading, “Try to Relate to Who’s on Your Plate” that covered her bare chest, an activist beauty led a protest against eating fish outside the Pike Place Fish Market in Seattle today.

Activists carried the mermaid-laden table inside the fish market in front of a display of dead, frozen bodies. Police asked the activists to leave, and all but one complied.

The persistent protester stayed until cops carried her out of the market, where the demonstration continued.

So who wants to volunteer to wear a topless outfit to get attention to our needs? LOL :scratch:

Ya know, I probably wouldn't mind the activists so much if they all went topless. [wink] Protest all ya want, I'll just sit over here and observe. [biggrin]

Better not let PETA see the Skok thread, they'll have nightmares for weeks.

On the more serious side. Do you have to use barbless to catch a Mermaid? Also whats the limit?

My hook is barbless. And I limit myself to one in a lifetime, I can't 'handle' any more than that. :nemo: [thumbsup]

This is definitely a C&R fishery! We wouldn't want to endanger the run. :tongue:
