I've read, probably in ads, that Alaskan fish products repell deer,

NOT repell deer. Can anyone vouch for Alaskan fish (emulsion?)?
Thanks -Allan who want's to put up a Premeir deer fence but who ain't
going to do that until the damned eggplants get in the ground! (maybe
Monday! ;-) -Allan in WV
Saltwater Farms fish emulsion/seaweed mix (from Maine) has some effect here. I can't vouch for it under heavy deer pressure; but then, I'm not sure anything works if/when there are a lot of deer who can't find anything else to eat. A nice cover crop elsewhere that you don't mind them munching on might reduce the pressure some.
The Organic Gem website claims it does repel deer for some; so maybe you have strange deer who like fish (I have mice here who love hot peppers); or maybe you have very heavy deer pressure.
