Don't know, never caught enough fish to ever need to get the smell of my

Seriously, I use those Alcohol-based Hand Sanitizers

Your eyelash-batting, swimsuit wearing, sweet Daisy Mae shtick
will doubtless amuse some of the folks around here, especially
if you continue to include a bit of sunbathing near the waterfall
in your "trip reports", but don't expect that I'll be one of those
so amused.

"Which of you big strong boys wants to help poor, little ol' me
learn how to fish ?"

BLECH, it's enough to gag a maggot off a **** wagon.

Post something about fly fishing if you ever try it. This IS a
fly fishing group, you know ?

are you serious? if ot posts in this forum were rewarded with one of
wolfy's shiny new nickels, your sorry ass wouldn't have to work another day
for the duration. and this place would become about as busy as
kernersville, nc, at four a.m.

there just must be some limit to hypocricy, even from an illini.

I wasn't complaining about off-topic posts from a fly fisherman.
Indeed, as you point out, in your quaint and rustic fashion, there
is precious little a fly fisherman could post here that would be
considered off-topic according to the conventions and traditions
of roff.

I was offering a bit of constructive criticism to Ms. Snake because
she's never been fly fishing and her posts were starting to sound
like abridged Penthouse tales submitted as personal ads to the
classified section of _The Hillbilly Times_.

I have heard that steel under running water does the trick ~ I'm not sure if
it works though (not having tested it), nor have I a clue of what causes it
to work, if it is indeed true.

"Which of you big strong boys wants to help poor, little ol' me

gee, forty, i don't recall asking any of you big strong boys to teach me to
fish. as i recall, i decided saturday night that i was ready to try
fishing, went shopping for a fishin pole alone- no big strong boy with
me-ventured out on my own sunday mornin, again unaccompanied- no big strong
boy- and went out again today- alone- to continue the adventure. other than
a little advice from the gentlemen from florida, i think i have pursued this
adventure pretty much without the request of aid from anyone of the male
gender. anyone who knows me at all knows that while i do enjoy the company
and affections ofmen, and i may at times be a flirt, i am not an eyelash
batting, please help me becasue i am a helpless woman i. am a strong,
self reliant woman, who has managed quite well to accomplish some great
feats in life without resorting to such tacticts.

as far as any penthousesque (sp?) allusions, i think you are a little
confused. who brought up the contents of the sock drawer. i think you
might be just a little fixated on such things. also i believe we are all
adult enough here to not be overly excited my the mere mention of a bathing
suit for god's sake. what are we-junior high-schoolers, ruled by our
hormones??

as far as posting a non-fly fishin trip, i did put out feelers prior to the
post. if you don't want to read the ****- skip it.

Wash your hands with a stainless steel spoon and dish soap. Ever see those
stainless steel odor removers? Seriously no need to waste that lemon for
your cocktails.

I've not met you in person, but your posts here belie what you'd have
us believe. As for who commented on the contents of your sock drawer,
that would have been you in the first place, now wouldn't it, how else
would I have known of it ?

You don't fly fish, you've never fly fished, in fact until mere moments
ago you've never fished PERIOD. Why are you here ? Why do you post here
to boast in front of an overwhelmingly male audience of your sunbathing
and your "strong, self-reliance" ?

self reliance i did boast about- sunbathing- not. that is just what *you*
chose to focus on. i'm surprised that one such as yourself that claims to
be an avid fisherman would be more interested in obsessing on the passing
mention of swimming attire, as opposed to the expression of sheer joy
experienced my ones first fishing experience.

as far as sock drawer contents are concerned, i let that one go a long time
ago- why can't you?

I don't know why it works, but it does. The steel needs to be
stainless though. Some outdoor magazines sell "bars" of stainless
steel for this purpose. They don't say they're stainless steel, but
they are. Cold water works better than hot for cleaning off fish
slime too.

Well, perhaps one of you can explain why some female who has
never fly fished in her life would post ribald anecdotes to an
overwhelmingly male newsgroup devoted to fly fishing.

Misunderstood ? Most definitely. Underestimated ? Not likely.

Next time you go to a restaurant that has those towletts in the sealed foil
packages take a few extras, just be sure to pick up your trash. There are
several brands of "baby wipes" in pocket or purse size containers that work
pretty well. I suppose catfish or carp can smell them if you got the smell
on the bait but trout don't seem to notice.

It's a strange thing, but it it does for onion smell too. We have a
stainless steel chinese kitchen knife that never seems to leave the hands
reeking of onion, after washing it down by hand in cold running water.
Peculiar indeed! ~ anyone any idea as to how the odiferous compounds are
either: being destroyed/modified by the combination of cold running water
and contact with steel; or, being removed from the hand into the running
water, due to contact with steel; or by preventing the compounds from
becoming mobile in the air to reach the nose, because of water & steel?
Can't really think of anything else ?
