The Westwego fish market remains empty on May 25, 2010. The fast-encroaching oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico is forcing fish merchants to close one by one in Louisiana's huge Westwego seafood market. "I'm closed because I couldn't get any crabs," said Michelle Chauncey, who pulled down her stall's rolling metal door on Friday. Along the Westbank Expressway that follows the Mississippi River, a succession of 26 seafood stalls forms the "shrimp lot" market. These small wooden stores usually offer an assortment of fish, crabs and shrimp every single day of the week. But six stores have already closed their doors over the past 10 days.
