No, but thanks for the tip:
"In some traditions he is depicted as a wild man, or a beast man, or
sometimes a mix of fish and man, stemming from the confusion of two of
the characters about what he is, found lying on a beach...
Caliban is referenced as half-man, half-fish in Vladimir Nabokov's
1969 novel, Ada or Ardor: A Family Chronicle."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caliban_(character)
"Caliban, a character in Shakespeare's The Tempest, is among the
literary characters who smell like fish."

No; how many?
S2E19 Hurley: I'm on a new diet. Nothing but fish and water, and fish
and water.
S3E6 Sawyer: We ain't on our island. Were on another island, like
Alcatraz, couple miles off shore. So unless you're a mermaid or you
got a boat, there ain't no point.
