A couple of months ago, after a day of diving off Catalina, my mesh gear bag began smelling exactly like a pile of dead fish. I don't know if the fact that my bag got friendly with the boat's mop has anything to do with it, but I can't seem to get the smell to go away.
I've tried the sink-the-stink stuff as well as soaking the bag in soapy water and letting it dry in the sun. At best, the smell becomes slightly subtler but it quickly returns to full strength.
If I hadn't paid full price for this bag at my LDS, I would simply replace it at this point, but I did so I would love any suggestions for tough odor problems.
