As a man, I do not get candles. This is okay right up until my wife lights them: All I think about is the stink and the fire hazard – she thinks they “smell nice” and doesn’t worry about the house burning down.
So the only reason I’m typin’ this here post on candles is because one of our intrepid Paraders ran across the site ManCaveCandle.com and noticed there was no bassin’-related scent.
Good point. I mean, aside from a fart candle (which they have) or something else suitably juvenile for us Neanderthals, why not candles for one of the two most popular outdoor sports (the other bein’ deer huntin’)?
So what bassin’ scent would remind you – say, when cooped up in the winter months – of being out on the water?
The easiest one, and probably the best for clearing the house, would be the sweet scent of Power Bait. Other olfactory treats that come to mind are Smelly Jelly, BANG, gasoline, outboard exhaust and what we’ll call “basser been out in the sun all day” 100% pure stank.
Let us know your tear-inducing favorite bassin’ odors below or on Faceybook.
Note
> We actually kinda like the idea of stinks men like, and the ManCaveCandles have a bunch nailed: gunpowder, mesquite, pulled pork, even fresh-chainsawed trees. Funny!
> In case you’re motivated to grab a candle, we inquired whether the ManCaveCandle site is still in biz, and here’s what we got back from the owner, Kerrie-Sue Stahl: “Yes, I am still in business, however I am in the process of restoring my home after a house fire that occured on December 15. It takes me a little longer to get the orders out but I am still getting them made and sent. They are hoping to get me back into the house mid-April.” Huh. Candles, a house fire – who woulda thunk?!
Seriously, though, if stank is you or your wife’s thang, may be nice to help Kerrie-Sue out.

Just an FYI – her house fire was not due to a candle burning, or anything related to a candle! 🙂

How about a cat-fish stink bait candle? Or dead night crawlers left out in the sun ?

Mine would be a combo of two-stroke smoke and Bass Hammer scented Smelly Jelly…

Two Stroke Smoke is an awesome name. They should use that one.

..well untill they make one you can put a few drops of Kick’n Bass Garlic on a no-scent candle and it will stank up the whole Man Cave for days. But 2 cycle smoke would be good. CYA
