Heh, get your minds out of the gutter!

I'm talking about the stink of a springer, that is.

What is your favorite method, chemical, soap, process to remove "the stink" of a springer off of your hands after handling one?

Off all the salmon, Jerry seems to have the worse stink. After cleaning a fish, my hands just reek of springer.

What do you use to fully remove that smell off of your hands. Normal hand soap just doesn't seem to work.

I tried Lava, and it was OK, but not fullproof.

Anyone tried that Orange hand soap stuff?

Come on, let's her how you get your hands clean after a day of catching and cleaning Jerry.

Try toothpaste to wash your hands after soap and rinse. That seems to work well. How did springer end up with "Jerry" for nick name?

Lemon Joy. Actually any citrus based soap will help.

Springer. Jerry. Jerry Springer.

Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

Or groceries.

Nothing like going out and getting a mess of good eating groceries!

Half lemon joy half water and 10 drops of pure ansie work for my.

Aahhh... That Jerry.

I'm trying to not take this personal Almost deleted the thread before I read it

Go-Jo Orange for the hands. Lemon Joy for the boat/fish box.

Milk. you can also soak fish it it to lessen the fishy taste commonly done with shark or skate.

Lemon Joy.
Good luck,

This sounds odd, but try it. It even works to get that smoked fish smell off your hands.

This only works if you have a stainless steal sink (or faucit)... After washing hands in the sink, rub hands liberally on the stainless steal. Yup, strange, but true.

CWUGirl - Yeah, that works well for getting the harsh onion smell off of your hands. I just use a good knife steel - same concept. I'll try that with springer stink.

Thanks for the ideas everyone! My wife thanks you!

Wear rubber gloves before handling a 'jerry'.

toothpaste- but the generic stuff not that fancy Crest whitening three mint sparkly flashy stuff. The .99 tube at albertsons does the trick. My uncle who sport fishes the ocean off New Zeland taught me this trick last year, it works great!

I have a little metal bar, silver color, for chefs to get onion/garlic/fish smell off the hands, gotta admit, I was skeptical, but it works, just use it and a little soap, well worth the $4

that purell hand sanitizer stuff works wonders on fish smell. i used to use it on my hands to get that really fishy perch smell off

I just, well, can you say finger lick'n good!

That's funny Pilebuck!

I told Parker I was gonna pick my nose all the way home just to enjoy the 'scent'. I thought about driving a little slower so the experience would last a little longer, too.

Hey Parker......when you're heading home with sacks o' springer, you can't complain about the smell.

You don't know stink until you make the mistake of keeping a Vedder River White Chinook!

The smell creeping out of the cooler in my car made me gag all the way back home to Seattle. The fish was somewhat bright to. That was six years ago and now its all C&R on those stinky whites!

Windex always worked for me !!!!!
