Okay, being a chef for life has something to do with this.
As I swim I am always taking a little water into my nose. I have noticed as I cruise over and through different types of weed beds , bass beds, clear water and near wooded shores I can smell the difference underwater.
I also know now that I have allergies to some sea weeds...
The other day I could smell the Bass before I reached them... there they were , about five feet down ,just suspended a foot over their dished out beds.
Some weed beds smell so strong I want to hold my nose.:fish2:
I wonder if we have some electric receptors like pike do that we don't know about.
I agree about smelling during swimming. I am not a chef, but I had 3 kids so I did cook alot and enjoy flavors.
I swim in lots of different pools: Monon Center has a floral-type smell underwater :), Carmel High School is a fish-type scent (lots of fast swimmers there), LA Fitness is just a flat out chlorine smell (spa and small 3 lane pool), Noblesville HS usually smells/tastes like dirty feet, and Forest Park is outdoors so the smell really depends on the weather.
All ow smells the same to me. I will start trying to notice if the different types of fish have a different smell quality to them. That should help pass significant time while swimming! :angel:
