How To
How do I clean fishing gear?
There are many options when it comes to cleaning your fishing equipment. Some of these methods are very basic while others require more advanced techniques. The most common method is to use soap and water. You should always ensure you rinse the item thoroughly after washing it. You could end up with bacteria growth if you don't thoroughly rinse the item. If left untreated, this could cause a bad odor and worsening of infections. This can be prevented by drying the items thoroughly before storing them. Another thing that you should keep in mind when doing any type of cleaning is to avoid touching the surface of the item. The risk of spreading germs is high if you touch dirty objects.
Apart from using soap, water, there are many ways you can improve the quality and performance of your fishing gear. You may want to use different detergents or solvents, depending on the type and model of your fishing gear. However, there are some things you shouldn't use because they can damage your goods. Bleach is one example. Bleach has been known to disintegrate plastic and metal so it shouldn't be used to clean fishing gear. Warm water and a dishwashing detergent are better choices. Dishwashing liquids that are specifically designed for cleaning fish should be used only. Dishwashing liquids contain enzymes and chemicals that help break down organic materials such as scales, slime, and blood. They also contain surfactants, which help to remove dirt and grime. A stain remover is recommended if you have concerns about stain removal. Oils and fats can cause stains. Applying stain removers directly to the area where the oil or fat came from helps remove the stain without damaging the underlying material.
