Sept. 21 (UPI) -- Road crews in Washington were left with "quite the mess to clean up" when a semi truck rolled over on Interstate 5 and spilled its load of fish across all the northbound lanes.
The Washington State Patrol said the semi overturned near mile marker 205 in the Arlington area Thursday morning and spilled fish across the roadway.
"[Crews] will have quite the mess to clean up," the Washington Department of Transportation said on social media.
All northbound lanes were closed for clean-up, but vehicles were being allowed to pass the scene on the shoulder.
The driver of the semi truck was not injured.

They’re going to have a halibut time cleaning that up.

I heard the truck driver blew a seal.
But that’s his personal business, I guess.

“UPDATE: The fish rendering semi-truck is now upright. All lanes remain blocked on NB I-5 just south of SR 531 in #Marsville. Cews will have quite the mess to clean up.”
Take those cews from Marsville...
Yeah, looks like somebody needs a new keyboard.

There is no Marsville. This is in Marysville, a few miles north of Everett.

There is no Marsville.
Well, there's the Marshalls along I-5 "just south of SR 531 " where the road is closed from the spillage (and mile marker 205 NB is by Smokey Point Self-storage, Peterbilt.)
That would be Marshalls store no. 1061, Jonas in the Greek (Ἰωνᾶς).
"[Crews] will have quite the mess to clean up"
So many fish that "the backup is currently 3 miles."
A whale of a tale. People can tell the weather, but not the signs of the times!
Certainly not the plaice to be stuck in traffic. Might be some angry drivers with no soles.
