tricks for keeping mosquitos away in the boat?

[MCG1]

Only female mosquitoes bite. Tell them their sister is cuter. They will leave you alone.

All kidding aside, the Mosquito is the deadliest creature on earth. Wear whatever works for you, but at least wear repellent of some kind. If you don't like deet, try Natrapel. Its works well

Maybe not... or maybe so. I have a hard time understanding how a fish brought in COULDN'T be exposed given that the device creates a "15-Foot Zone of Protection" (per the company's website), but I've never used it myself so maybe there's something I don't understand about it.

As I said, I've heard it's effective, and I could imagine trying it out myself in various situations. I just don't know that fishing is a good application for it and at present I wouldn't feel comfortable about it for either myself or especially any fish that I might want to release.

Different strokes...

It would also depend on the concentration of the chemical in the air, and duration that the fish is exposed. Holding the fish 2 inches from the chemical, for ten minutes would be a lot worse than 30 seconds in the open outdoors.

Which Blood Types Do Mosquitoes Prefer? People with Type O blood are more than universal donors. They're also “tastier” to mosquitoes. In fact, according to a study, certain species of the insect landed on the skin of people with Type O blood almost twice as often as they did on the skin of those with Type A.

They sure like my girlfriend's rare Type AB-negative,I'm Type O and she's always gets torn up, while i'm not.
