Hey folks

I'm looking for a Michigan source for fish emulsion. 5-10 gallons worth.

It's odd I'm having trouble sourcing this, being WE ARE SURROUNDED BY THE GREAT LAKES!

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Do you fish?

It is possible to make your own.

Next time fish is on the menu save the parts that are not serves like skin, bones. etc.

Add sawdust, molasses, and water.

If tat is not possible, do you have a Northern tool nearby?

Anne

I do fish (catch and release), but currently not interested in making it. I need to do more research on it. Seems like the smell could be an issue for many reasons.

And no, I don't have a Northern Tool anywhere near me.

Thanks.
