Smearing a fish over your body will make you smell like a fish.

In space, no one can hear you fish.
A fish released into the inky vacuum of space is unlikely to survive long, but NASA hasn't tried it yet.
If a fish walks into a bar, the bartender will rarely serve him, since fish don't often live to be 21.
Some fish can fly, theses fish are called flying fish, others like the gold fish, however, cannot fly. If they could, they would be called flying gold fish.
Fishes are rarely more "fishy" than human beings.
