Eau du Salmo Morte

The catching was slow but the fishing was great. We had incredibly
nice weather for early November, bright and sunny and in the mid-50's
each afternoon. Which is why the catching was slow, but no matter
it was good to be on a river waving a fly rod.

The Pere Marquette had a very nice salmon run this year and I didn't
need to read the fly shop braggadocio to figure that out. There were
still salmon corpses everywhere. And Kaylin rolled around in every
goddamn one of them. Why do dogs *do* that ? Ohmigawd, the stench
was, and to an extent still is, awful.

Any suggestions for getting the smell of dead salmon out of a dog's
fur ? Anybody want to make an offer on an 18 month-old yellow Lab ? ;-)

Actually, tomato soup. The same acids that knock down skunk will help
fumigate the hound.

And by the way, to another dog, that smell is Odie cologne.

Tomato juice doesn't work well for skunk-smell removal. It's pretty much
an old wives's tale.

Try this mixtu

1 q white vinegar OR 3% hydrogen peroxide
1/4 c Baking soda.
1 tsp dish detergent

I have used tomato Juice aplenty for skunks but you MUST have lemon juice or
it will not work.

Tomato juice doesn't neutralize the smell -- it merely masks it.

I can verify that this is a MIRACLE liquid! My neighbors dog dragged a
dead skunk home. After being amazed at how well this mixture
neutralized the smell on the dog, we gagged our way out to the skunk,
poured the last of the juice over its mangled corpse, and I sweartagod
you could not smell ANY trace of eau de skunk on it at all. Knocked
out the smell 100%.

Ill have to try it on beach rotted crab. Wonder how it will do on
Coyote poop and Otter slick? Otter slick, that goo they grease their
runs with, is about the most obnoxious stuff in nature. Around here
one of the worse things that can happen is to have some otters move
under your house.
Thanx
