I suppose that might depend on what brand they smoke and what it has done to their nasal abilities.
i never have a smoke until i have caught my first fish - yes i think tabacco on the fingers can taint the bait in certain situations - is that what you are asking?
I'm with you Angla.
Filthy expensive habit.

no way,been many a time I've sat next to a non smoker and out fished him all day
Rainbow Trout is NOT skittle flavoured fish.........
You blokes that smoke and fish must have too much money !

Nah, that's the least concern with smoking and fishing, burning the line or setting fire to the boat is more likely.
Depends what you're smoking, one type of smoking works as an anti-nauseate if you're sea sick, you could call it medicinal smoking.![]()

it MAY have a desired effect, take for instance types of scent 'in a bottle" we pay for to help attract fish so, it may help not hinder, I don't know though, just a thought. by the way I do not smoke so I am not defending it in any way.
My query is what do you guys do with your smoke butts either when driving or fishing? How many flick em into the water or out the window?
Cheers.
i have to admit the first time i went out fishing a few years back with my father in law i did flick them into the water
but i would never do that again mea culpa mea maxima culpa
still feel bad about it what was i thinking ( i guess i wasnt)
now if i did smoke on the boat ( technically we quit )
i would put them out withwater and then into the bag for the rubbish and dispose of them on land
ashamed anya
