Hey PeeWee,can't say I ever had a problem with bait smell staying in my clothes. My wife gripes a little cause I'm bad to wipe my hands on my clothes no matter what is on them. We use Tide laundry detergent and it seems to do the trick. If the smell of stinkbait stays in your clothes after washing maybe you need to have some designated fishin' duds. Don't wear em anywhere but fishin

whatever it takes

I have to go along with Cheez on this one, I don't use anything special for laundry soap, just what ever is on sale. Unless you are using something new, which I doubt I haven't tried as I try everything (and I have tried stuff that would make a buzzard puke), it should work just fine. I do sometimes run my fishing pants through twice, if they are "real" bad just because like Cheez I have a bad habit (according to my wife) of using my pants to wipe my hands! :cool:

I use an old pair of hunting pants to fish in, so if the smell gets to bad, I can just toss them. As for your hands, try Dawn or Ivory dish soap with a little salt mixed in it. Make sure you scub well, and the smell should come out. I learned that last trick working on a hog farm one summer.

You may have the smell stuck in your nose instead of your cloths. I know my first time with superstinker I was smellen for 2 days after and everytime I checked to see if someone else could smell it they couldnt. For me it was all in my head......... Literally.
