I've not met you in person,

that's your loss, forty. a very bright light she shines, and not a
mean bone in her body. if she learns to fish as well as she plays a fiddle,
you couldn't touch the hem of her winston... no romance, just the truth.
kinda like i felt about you, in person, in what begins to feel like a decade
ago. underestimated, and misunderstood.


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" ?

she's not boasting. she just ain't sucking up. can you dig it?

Like I said, it's enough to gag a maggot off a **** wagon.

mirror, mirror, on the wall....

If you say so.

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.

OK. I do, actually by gawd, trust you.

EOT for me.

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.

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.


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.

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 ?
