Ever since I started making my own attractants I've seen a definite increase in the frequency of fish that I catch. This works well for multiple different species of fish including but not limited to Catfish, Carp, Freshwater Drum, Sunfish, Rock Bass, etc. In this video I'll be showing a step-by-step process of how I go about making my own homemade garlic extract fish attractant and all you will need to start making this simple extract is just a few items from your local grocery store.
Step One - Extraction:
A) One bag of 1 1/4 lbs. of garlic whole
B) One sharp knife or food processor
C) One large glass wide mouth Mason jar
D) Two 32 oz. bottles of 91% Isopropyl alcohol
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heated Reduction Method (Not Required):
If you want to refine and concentrate your garlic extract (tincture) into its more potent form you will also need:
A) One blender
B) One old pot or deep dish pan
C) One Old T-shirt or strainer
D) One induction cook top or electric burner

WARNING: Isopropyl alcohol vapor is flammable. It should be kept away from high heat and open flame. Isopropyl alcohol is a skin irritant. Wearing protective gloves is recommended. Isopropyl alcohol also act as central nervous system (CNS) depressants. Poisoning can occur from ingestion, inhalation, or skin absorption. Symptoms of isopropyl alcohol poisoning include flushing, headache, dizziness, CNS depression, nausea, vomiting, anesthesia, hypothermia, low blood pressure, shock, respiratory depression, and coma.

Alternative - Evaporation Reduction Method (Not Required But RECOMMENDED):
If you want to refine and concentrate your garlic extract (tincture) into its more potent form with this alternative you will also need:
A) One or more large flat pans or lager Rubbermaid containers
B) Time
If you a doing this Evaporation Reduction Method you will first need a secure place to put your pans with good ventilation like a screened in patio or porch or something of that nature. Second you will need to place your pans on a level surface and fill your each of your pans with just enough liquid to cover the pan a few centimeters or so. Now all you need to do is wait, have patience and periodically check on how much has evaporated from each pan until you've reached your desired amount of concentration and bottle it. Note: Leave your pans out for too long may result in all of the alcohol evaporating and ruining the extract or at the very least adding another step to this process where you would probably need to use more alcohol to reconstitute the left over oils and residue back into solution and start the evaporation process over again.

E) One or more spray bottles (depending on the size you use)
F) One syringe, dropper or measuring cup
G) Distilled or purified water
H) Spare jar or container (if there is any extract left remaining)
