soap

[Gone Angling]

Is there a particular brand of soap that will remove the smell of fish slime
coat from your hands. Bass isn't too bad but pike and salmon seem to linger a
long time. It bothers me not but others close to me are giving me flak. Is
there a good soap?

[Dave Norton]

"Oduer de Polecat " should do the trick! And with that "plonk" back to the
idiot bin you go!

I like Dr. Bronner's 18-n-1 Peppermint.
Ask for it in the health food stores.
It is biodegradeable, and favored by hippies and backpackers alike.
When I was in the Navy, I'd mix Dr. B's and Dial AntiBacterial liquid soap,
and could do a full shower with 5 drops of the stuff.

I just thought of mixing lemon and vinegar, or maybe a prewash with vinegar,
then the Dr. B's soap, if the Salmon is too strong an odor.

Nope. Toothpaste works!

Any stuff with orange oil works well, like that automotive hand
cleaner with pumice. The pumice and orange oil gets the stink out.

Toothpaste does work very well, and you can use the same toothbrush Al.

Was out helping at a Special Ed fishing derby last week. Afterwards is
talking to a trout fisherman. He is using powerbait and adds a dab of Crest
toothpaste to the PB. He said an old guy told him of it years ago and seems
to help. He thinks the toothpaste has some anise in it among other
ingredients.

Use that soap with orange oil and pumice in it. Find it in the
automotive section of your local large store. It's called "Fast
Orange".

Al is seeming lately to be almost normal every once in a while. Scary. I
guess that is how senility begins; with impossible halucinations.

In all these years, you would think he would have to grow up eventually.

Al isn't one of my favorite posters here, but I haven't felt the need to
"plonk" him, as I have several others.

To answer his original question, the best thing to remove fish smell is
to scrub very well without forgetting the fingernails, then use one of
those no-rinse hand sanitizing gels like Germ-x.
