How To
How can I clean my fishing gear properly?
There are many cleaning options for fishing equipment. Some methods are simple while others require more complex techniques. The most common way to wash your clothes is with soap and water. It is important to rinse the item well after washing it. If the item isn't washed thoroughly enough, dirt and bacteria could remain, leading to infection. Untreated, this can cause bad smells and worse infections. To prevent this, dry the items completely before storing. You should also avoid touching the item's surfaces when cleaning. You risk spreading germs to objects if you touch them.
You can do many things to improve the fishing gear's quality, other than using soap and water. Special detergents and solvents may be necessary depending on what type of gear you have. Some things should not be used, though, as they may cause damage to your goods. One of these things is bleach. Bleach can dissolve metal and plastic so don't use it for cleaning your fishing gear. Warm water and a dishwashing detergent are better choices. Only use dishwashing products that are made specifically to clean fish. Dishwashing liquids have enzymes and chemical that help to break down organic material such as scales. Surfactants help remove dirt and grime from surfaces. But, if staining is a concern, you might consider using a stain eliminator. Oils and fats can cause stains. Applying stain removal products directly to areas where the oil and fat are located will remove the stain while not damaging the underlying materials.
There are many cleaners available for fishing gear at your local hardware store. Many stores stock a variety of cleaners that are suitable for various purposes. Some of them are meant to deal with small amounts of grease, while others are intended to handle larger quantities. You can choose one that suits your needs best.
