Guest Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 Best smell? My first inhale in the morning when I awake to the smells of a new day and life ... un-describable BB-LDF Although often the first face of the new day is that of my yellow-lab “Bro” as he sticks that cold-nose in my face to wake me up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uffdapete Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 This a good opportunity to find out what it is that is my favorite smell. What odor is so prevalent in say - May or early June in northern Minnesota? I've noticed it in both the Bemidji and I. Falls areas, in low lying places, but have never known exactly what it is. I don't really know how to describe it but it's definitely a native plant unique to northern Minnesota. Maybe tag alders or some shrub like plant?

jigglestick Posted October 6, 2002 Author Share Posted October 6, 2002 a friend of mine tells me he can smell grouse. he said he's not exactly sure if it is the grouse he is smelling, or something they eat in the area, but he says when he smells it he gets ready,because 8 out of 10 times, he jumps a bird. we were out once and he said "smell that?" i couldn't smell anything. he tried to describe it, but with my crooked schnoz no luck. right after that we jumped a bird---???? hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 How about the smell of burnt black powder. The smell of the exaust of a racing sled! Or the best smell to have is the smell of fish slime all over your hands because to caught so many fish! (its not a good smell to have but it was sure fun getting it ) ------------------FISHSTUNNER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 Maybe this is just my farmboy roots - I love the smell of fresh tilled soil in the spring, and the smell of corn drying in the fall. Whenever I get a hint of the smell of a diesel it reminds me of driving my Dad's old John Deere.I also love the campfire smell from a distance.

jacheesehead Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 How about the smell of fresh cut grass? I just love it. Not only the smell, but it also means that the chores are done and I can go fishin'!Also... that smell just after a summer rain on warm pavement...... and the smell of fallen leaves on a cool autumn morning.

Guest Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 How about the smell of my yellow lab "Jozie" when she gets back into the duck blind after a clean double retrieve on a crisp frosty morning in late October/early November? That smell is truly unique. Or--How "Jozie" smells after a day of duck hunting when she is curled up in front of the fireplace, slightly damp, and dreaming of the past days events? Great Topic!!!!!! Later...... Dugan!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveR Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 I don't know what else to call it but I call it Sweet Water. The smell that arises off the tops of large freshwater lakes and rivers, it is sweet and cool, and fresh as ever. It's not there everyday. I don't know how else to describe it but it smells like the freshest air I ever knew. anyone know what I am talking about? another great smell is that of the grain dust in an old grain mill. Not too many will get to smell that anymore, with the passing of the milling era. Great thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladylikestofish Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 ...the pine trees "up north". They do something to the air to make it smell sweeter and fresher than anything; I LOVE IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
