re: Marsh gnats

quote:That's the stuff. I went on an Alaskan float trip several summers back with a group of 8 guys from Louisiana. When we got off the bush plane and started loading our gear into the rafts, the gnats descended upon us like a plague. One guy broke out the amber romance and we all started lathering up. The guides (some hard customers), all began exchanging nervous glances. When we explained what it was for they politely declined. Half way through the first day they were using it too.
When y'all saying Amber Romance, y'all mean the Victoria Secret perfume? This just wreaks of troll
It really does work. This was several years ago, maybe they changed the formula and it's less effective nowadays.

Ha I believe y'all. I could just picture someone trying to explain to his wife that he did in fact go fishing, and not go to a strip club

Send my wife to VS for some the other day. she walked in and said "my husband needs the stuff for gnats" the woman knew what she was talking about and I have 3 bottles..
that being said, I only bowfish in March because I'd rather deal with mosquitoes than freaking gnats

Probably some girl wearing it by coincidence that went fishing.

Try Cactus Juice. That's what many of the Lafitte guides use.

gnats were horrible in Biloxi Marsh. We almost had to go in. The only thing that deep woods OFF did was keep them a few feet from my face.

We used Vanilla Lace, another VS product. Every helicopter mechanic from Venice to Creole had a bottle in his toolbox.

all of the guides I know in Cocodrie, Fourchon and Grand Isle use Amber Romance
