Sometimes, I find it very difficult to clean up my hands after
handling some dirty stuff. Dishwashing Soap and orange lava do not
seem to work very well. Is there anything better. A powder or
different soap or whatever.

Thanks


I like Boraxo for non-oily grime. Ir even cleans off dried bluefish
guts. g It's available online.

Do anything for the smell? I always handle the chum, its almost as bad
as bluefish. Milady won't let me in the house. The neighbors get a
cheap show, I strip just outside and head straight to the shower.

BTW, we catch a lot of bluefish in Florida Bay and just toss them back
in. I figure the northern New England types must be more desperate for
fish.


Separately, vinegar, alcohol, tomato juice, and ammonia will remove
lots of nasty scents from your hands. (Do not mix them.)
