Walleye'm Fishing Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Your tongue!!! We were having lunch at a campsite when my dad took a sip out of his half empty can of Pepsi. Unbeknownst to him, a wasp was inside the can and stung him on the tongue.
RDR Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Blackfly bites on the eyelids are the worst for me. ADRIAN!!! ADRIAN!!!! CUT ME!!! LMAO
Toad Hunter Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 Since all of the good places to get bit have been covered. I HATE it when you are drifting off to sleep and there is one stupid mosquito that makes a run at your ear and the buzzing noise gets really loud and then quiet. Art Thats almost more torturous than a knuckle bite. between the toes or between the fingers. x2 arch of the foot is pretty bad too, I have "high arches" so have a hell of a time trying to rub it on the bottom of the shoe
bigbuck Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 Ankles. Nasty spots to get bit. During black fly season, I spray my whole body down with Muskol before I get dressed. Other than the lil buggers flying around my face, I find I dont get bit by them thankfully. For bad skeeters, I still have some paint thinner Muskol thats 95% deet from the 80's that I break out.
Old Ironmaker Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 That spot in the middle of the back you can't get to. There used to be a product called Calmitol that worked wonders and can't get it anymore. Shoppers sells something called Afterbite. I don't leave home without it. One in the car, truck, boat, golfbag and tackle box. As soon as you feel a bite or see one put a bit on, no more itch. As long as it's not in the middle of your back where you can't reach.
Believer Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Ditto on the horseflies on your feet. Had one in between my toes. The horseflies always go for my toes when I'm wearing sandals, those bites kill! My dog got stung by a bee right on her bum a while back. Now all I have to do is make a buzzing noise and she jumps around wildly in a huge panic LOL! Edited June 13, 2013 by Believer
gone_fishin Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 Your tongue!!! We were having lunch at a campsite when my dad took a sip out of his half empty can of Pepsi. Unbeknownst to him, a wasp was inside the can and stung him on the tongue. i was about to post the same thing! wasp flew into my beer bottle a couple years ago. took a sip, BAM! my entire tounge was numb for a week.
jedimaster Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 I had a wasp in my mouth a long time ago as well from a pop can, I felt it an spit it out and the thing flew out, luckily it didn't sting me.
wkimwes Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Knuckles, and ankles. Somehow the mosquitos love to attack my ankles, just last week I had a row of 4 of them together, it made one big swollen heap. Plus when I work out it gets irritated from the rubbing of the sock and shoe during my runs. I had to stop it was so bad! Edited June 14, 2013 by wkimwes
Toad Hunter Posted June 15, 2013 Author Report Posted June 15, 2013 I remember about 4 years ago, I was at a cottage for a buddies batchelor weekend on Kamamiskeg (Berrys Bay) - after a LONG night of "festivities" and after everyone crashed, I canoed out to the swim raft and was casting away with no luck. Eventually the fun had caught up to me and I fell asleep on the raft, using my travel tackle bag as a pillow. Woke up after about an hour or so with the sun pounding away on my pounding head.. made my way back to shore only to have the ones who were waking up point out my neck and back were COVERED in bites, from everything from misquitos, flies and dock spiders I would imagine... made the hang over extra pleasant. I DID how ever eventually catch the biggest fish of my life that weekend a low 40's Northern -and of course I couldn't get a picture- but my brother and his friend witnessed it and were both blown away by the beast (maybe even more than I was) so it made it all worth it. Somewhere in that lake is a monster with some interesting piercings (as it took off with my mepps giant killer after shreading my 50lb braid (no leader )
Dabluz Posted June 15, 2013 Report Posted June 15, 2013 I spent most of my life hunting and fishing and nevertheless....I'm allergic to blackfly bites and mosquito bites. I really swell up after getting bit. Yes....the area around the eyes is a bad spot. One bite and my eye swells up closed. Other than the eyes, I think the worst spot is on the lips. My mouth goes all lopsided and the itching lasts for at least 24 hours.
Angler management Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 The horseflies always go for my toes when I'm wearing sandals, those bites kill! My dog got stung by a bee right on her bum a while back. Now all I have to do is make a buzzing noise and she jumps around wildly in a huge panic LOL! Hahahahaha!!!!! Thats hillarious! Toes has my vote... Nothing like being stuck in work boots for 12 hrs. With an itchy bite from the weekend! Almost made me throw my tools down and quit a couple times! Lol.
lew Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 I don't have any bug bites worth worrying about right now, but I've got poison ivy on both my ankles and that's about as bad as it gets
Rod Caster Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 Went camping last night...everywhere is the worse place when your trying to sleep! Especially when it's those darn no-see-'ems that get through the tent mesh. Can't believe how bad the skitters were last night.
danc Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 I'd have to say that the worst place to get a bug bite for me is in Nakina.
aplumma Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 Down here it is not the flies or skeeters we have to contend with it is the Gnats that swarm over your head and bite. The bite doesn't do anything after the pinch/pain at the time of the bite but you can get literally 10 per min. at the wrong time. Art
danc Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 A few years back I had a job in The Pas Manitoba. We stayed at a nice lodge on a beautiful lake. When we attempted to leave our cabin on the morning of our first day of work, we were met by a wall of mosquitoes. Never seen anything close to this in Ontario. We slammed the door shut and had to make a plan. We simply had to run to our truck as fast as we could through the mass of bugs. There were millions of them. When we returned to our cabin after work we were pleased to see thousands of dragon flies cruising in mid air and picking off the misquitoes. It was amazing. After dark the bats took over. Nature. It's an awesome thing.
Moosebunk Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 On a fly-in must've been a blackfly that bit me on the pinna. Sucked cause one guy was the worst snorer ever and that bite would irritate when putting the earplug in. Scotch and Gravol helped take the irritation away though. lol.
Toad Hunter Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 On a fly-in must've been a blackfly that bit me on the pinna.... Hey I thought I said leaving the genitals out of this..
