Stop a fish from bleeding.
I was watching a show on WFN and a pro angler said that he always carries Mountain Dew with him when fishing because the acid in it will stop a bleeding fish from bleeding. He said that when he removes the hook he pours the soda on the wound wherever it may be and the bleeding immediately stops. Interesting.....

Anyone ever hear of this. I posted something similar to this a while ago but it was about Coke not Mountain Dew, the angler also stated that it only works with Mountain Dew.

Just thought I'd share.

I'll try this tomorrow! Not that I'd intentionally make a fish bleed but it happens from time to time

Darn, warm Mountain Dew is the worst Tongue. Thanks for trying it out though, guess it's my turn to test it out now Big Grin

RE: Stop a fish from bleeding.
Cut your hand open and pour some mountain dew on it to see what happens. No need to experiment with fish.

RE: Stop a fish from bleeding.
Maybe this is just like that strange concept of fizzing bass... somehow poking a hole in their swim bladder is helpful Confused.

I don't think soda would be healthy to pour over gills...

I'll guess we'll know that it doesn't work ...... if we get no hand typed response....smile

<>< I once gave up fishing. It was the most terrifying weekend of my life. ><>

See you on the river.
