Zout is your friend...

[nofearengineer]

Yesterday after work, I only had about an hour before the sun went down, so instead of going home, I stopped by the local lake to drop shot a little.

There were a couple guys who were getting ready to launch for some night fishing. We were talking fish, and they good-naturedly ribbed me about having a pair of slacks and a nice white shirt on. I told them "it's no problem, I do it all the time."

Well, what do you know, but the DNR shows up (what is it with those guys?!?!), and as the officer comes up to check my license, I hook a small bass. While attempting to unhook the little guy, he manages to extricate himself from my grasp, and shakes blood all over the front of my shirt.

After you get done laughing at my dumb arse....

Buy some "Zout". It rocks. I followed the instructions, and no stain on the shirt. I've never found anything else that worked that well for blood. Thumbs up.

I think I will start keeping a T-shirt in my truck from now on, in case I get the urge to fish on the spur of the moment.

Never heard of Zout. Peroxide works really good on blood stains though.

That is good to know. Never heard of it, but Shout came to mind but I found out what it is apparently good for:

• Does not harm the flame resistance of children's sleepwear
• Safe on all colorfast washables
• Triple enzyme formula
  • Amylase: For starch stains like BBQ sauce, chocolate syrup, tomato sauce, and baby food
  • Protease: For protein stains like baby formula, blood, and grass
  • Lipase: For fat & oil stains like butter, salad dressing, and canola oil

Thanks for the into Bryce. And a tee shirt does sound like a very good idea, haha. And your right. What is it with those folks from the DNR??? I had the same guy check me 4 times in one year a couple years back.
