With the fish slurry you have... once the fish have deteriorated enough it will just be sludge with a light colored oil floating on top of the sludge. The jar you keep the fish in should have a small nail hole in the lid so it vents off the gases and the jar should be in the sun for up to a year. It is this "amber" oil that floats to the top you want to use. Mix with a bit of glycerin for cold weather. The left over sludge can be used but it is the amber oil that will make a good lure that can be used for most of the weasel family (mustelids).
