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).

How much would you get from this. Say a 5 gallon pail of fish. I am curious more for bear hunting. Or for bears is this worth it ? What does the glycerin do?

The trapping course i took talked of this but i never asked the question there.
