Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Still have about 3/4 gallon left. The silver lining is that out of need I found an oil that tests even better than spoonbill for coyotes. I'm now building an inventory because I'm getting tired of not being able to secure good ingredients down the road. Been several ingredients I'm having difficulties procuring now and I'm just a hobby guy. Good luck.

I think I can get more from the hooded merganser but our limit is two a day. I have an old hand crank was machine maybe I could run enough thru there to get a quart. Recon how many I need to get a quart?

Yes sir trapper Y Joined: Jan 2017 Marion Kansas	Goggled it ... looks like spoonbill, paddle fish and spoonbill catfish are referring to the same thing. The spoonbill merganser is a completely different species though....

Matt Jones produced the best I've seen and did at one time sell all he produced to Andy Weiser, ( formally of Montana ) * Andy took a government trapping job in Utah and wasn't making lure, but then . . .maybe he is again, Idk ?
