Coghlans Anti-mosquitoes Coils.
One insect that can spoil a days
fishing is the dreaded mosquitoes. A pet hate along with wasps and
slugs of many an angler and one that l just won’t put up with
anymore. Most anglers are happy to smear on insect repellent, yet
just like filling the car up with diesel, its something l wont do as
fish are said to have a million times better sense of smell/taste
than us humans, so if l can smell any impurities on my hands then you
bet a fish can once its been transferred onto your bait.
The solution and an alternative to
using insect repellent is to carry a anti-mosi coil with you.
Lighting the coil with a lighter and blowing the flame out will see
the coil smoke for around eight-hours and better still they can be
placed in a holder that allows them to be transported easily from
swim to swim if roving or hung up in a nearby tree. You don’t even
have to place them right next to you, as they will deter insects from
quite a few feet.
I’m not sure if the holders are made
by Coghlans but l bought mine for a few quid from Yateley Angling
Centre where the coils, priced at £2.25 for ten, are also available.
