MAN those are some "NASTY" seas

! Sure glad you guys didn't get caught out there when it got that bad.

Has anyone tried Sawyer's Permetherin spray

(the same stuff used on "Bug-Off" clothing)? I treat all my fishing clothing [that aren't already treated (Ex-Officio)] for ticks, HUGE mosquito swarms and no-see-um flies in AK, MT, FL and the Sierra's. I also use it to "refresh" the repellency of the clothing already treated (like the original Buff headwear and Tilley hats or other fishing hats) and the treatment lasts for 20+ washings (according to the manufacturer) or a couple seasons (in my experience).
I buy the 24oz. spray bottle available from Campmor (in case anyone is interested).
