I bought some embroidery floss from a lady on ebay. I am using it to weave bodies for bluegill nymphs and maybe some stoneflies later on down the road. I got my floss today (100% embroidery floss), and opened it up and it smelled like cigarette smoke.
Now, being a non smoker myself, my nose is really in tune to be able to detect the smell of a smoker. I do not know how I could wash the floss without it unraveling, if the smell would even come out at all.
So my question is, do any of you smoke cigarettes while tying flies, or in your tying room? If so then your flies would probably hold that smell in them as well, and do you think it will affect the fishability of the flies? Especially for something like a bluegill nymph, where the fish really inspects what it eats?
