I had some on my carpet I went to dollar store and used their brand of carpet cleaner sprayed it let it foam up wait around 5 mits and use a strong shop vac worked real well. I`m sure theirs other ways but that worked for me.

oxyclean and hot water let it soak then spray off

Try a power washer.

Oxy Clean is actually some good stuff, may be hard to believe but it works. I'm sure scrubbing bubbles would get it off too. Slap some water on it and let it soak before spraying if it's really hard.

Hands & knees with a small shop vac. If it's really thick a stiff hand brush first. I'm going to try that dollar store carpet foam.

I dump a cup of laundry detergent over the boat and use a power washer. Bet you never saw as much fish slime as gets on my boat. We catch hundreds of Catfish every summer on poles and tons in nets in winter.:D

I was going to say that you should be the expert on fish slime. I catch a few catfish on my Bandits. The power washer works well for me. Although, I try to clean it imidiately with lake water and a rag.

a bay boat. Not 1 inch of carpet in the whole thing and i love it. Just run by the car wash and hit it with the high pressure hose and I'm done

Had the same problem and got tired of the same problem each trip. Slipped an old Beach towel and folded in my boat under cooler and when I anchor and start fidhing, I spred it on floor to protect carpet. Much easier cleaning a towel than your carpet. BB
