Sunday's frustration (hint no fish and stable flies)

[Capt Juls]

Sorry, I haven't been out since last Thursday. Had blow day reschedules on Friday and Saturday and was scheduled off on Sunday and yesterday. Today, my guys wanted to reschedule for better conditions, so I won't be back out until tomorrow.

As for the flies...I find they do not like Copper Tone's SPF 50 sunscreen (spray is better than the lotion), and will not bite once I put it on. Others have used a spray bottle with a mixture of water and Dawn Dish Soap, but I don't like that sticky feeling on my skin, so I don't use that.

Horse sprays work too, but again, I don't like to get that stuff on the carpet in my boat.

1/3 Avon skin so soft mixed with apple cider vinegar 2/3rds does the trick on those flies, I go 1/2 and 1/2

I remember awhile back people use to say Avon skin so soft repelled mosquitoes. Don't recall if I ever had luck using it. I will definitely try it out though. Thanks for the suggestion.

Good tip on the Coppertone spray. Is it a pump spray or a spray can that you use. I enjoy all the fishing info you share in your posts. Thanks.
