My wife has informed me that she'd prefer to place the order for Amber Romance from Victoria's as she'd rather I not be getting all the follow-up emails with the scantily clad women.

But first, I thought I'd ask if the gnat issue is expected to continue into June, or is it a seasonal thing? We usually make our LA fishing trip in June, and I don't recall a gnat thing the past few trips. I do remember lots of bugs growing up, but I can't recall which months had which bugs. Did we just get lucky last year with respect to the bugs?

Also, what precautions are needed with respect to the Amber Romance and keeping live shrimp alive? (I'm religious about keeping other bug repellents and sunscreens out of the bait well.) Would the vanilla extract be better with respect to not contaminating live bait?

One thing I love about Colorado is the absolute absence of bugs and snakes in the mountains.
