Im sitting at my desk right now and all I can smell is the 4 hours of herring chunking i did last night. (fruitless btw)

i've used lemon, automotive orange, soap soap and more soap but i can not seem to quell it. Seeing i work in IT and have to visit peoples cubes all day long, this can make for a very unpleasant experience for the one i'm visiting :jester:

What do you use to get rid of the herring cologne smell?:cheers:

i have been using a green tea scented foaming soap, after a couple of washes im stink free.....at least to myself:humpty:

Not surgical gloves. I hate finding those dame things all over the rocks. Using actual Lemons have worked for me in the past.

Who cares, half the week I come in here smelling like my waders, boo ya!...most people have learned to ask if I fished that morning before coming in to close :hee:

If anyone asks just say you work Nights as a Fluffer for an All-Girl Video Production Company:drool:

I can relate MH- it is often my car keys that hold on to the fragrancy. My small office is herringful quite a bit. Some suggestions:

1.- Toothpaste! The minty flavorings are a good mask for herring. Rub it on generously and do not rinse it off. You will have the freshest smelling handshake in the office.

2.Lime Juice- Always keep a bottle in the home and office fridge. Just pour it on and lather up.

3.Lemon wedges- Caution- severe cases of BASS THUMB can cause extreme pain with this method- Save the lemon garnish the next time you go for seafood. I have several behind the seat of my truck that get multiple uses.

4. Baby wipes or a bottle of hand sanitizer. Generally the sooner you clean your hands the better chance of eliminating that foul smell.

Good luck!

baking soda

Works great on counters/cutting boards also.

Steam room and/or dry sauna.

I use eel slime. Over powers it

rubbing your hands on stainless steel seems to work, that's basically what that wonder bar thing is....

heard of that one...tryed it.. herring is still present

I know of someone that makes fishing scents that are based on fish oils and extracts. This stuff makes smelly jelly seem like a condiment for a nice sandwich - it is strong. Anyway he makes a cleaner that he sells for the people silly enough to buy it, but he always recommends using tide. I guess it breaks the oils down that leave the smell. It might take several applications. Worth a try if you haven't already.

smother yourself with garlic and the smell will vanish

mixture of bleach and liquid joy...a real flesh eatten germ killer too.

Laquer thinner......then wash hands to get thinner residue off......or Curel

shaving cream will remove the stank from your hands

The purel type waterless cleaner does a good job getting rid of fish smell. I found out by accident when my gf pulled some from her purse to clean her hands after handling a fish - it worked great.

I keep some in the truck for after fishing cleanup.

Yup, bleah and joy will kill anything!!! Try not to breathe in too much when you're doing it because that mix produces chlorine gas!
Later,

we dont need any of that language you %^$&(()^*( jerk

Toothpaste and mouthwash works the best. Me and a friend went on a fishing trip and had some girls comming over later that night. We stunk like herring so we tried everything. Toothpaste and mouthwash did the trick!

Anyone got any good shore spots I can reach from the North End of Boston???!? I moved here pretty recently and dont know any productive spots.

Just tell them the way you understood the relationship, you were allowed to date other women.

if you rub your hands on the inside of your sink, stainless steel will get rid of the smell on your hands...

Doesn't that orange cleaner stuff work? its the stuff from the autoparts store.
