The ‘milk’ is water soluble. Meaning it stays down in the water column where as the oil remains at the surface. I use the milk cobia fishing a fair amount. I attach it to my anchor chain in a little bottle with a pin hole in it…The oil used in this manner would rise back to the surface, and the milk stays down near the bottom. If you are using just as a surface drip off the side of the boat for kings and such, either works well.

Just be prepared for a swarm of baby sharks if your cobia fishing this spring using either.
My bait freezer broke and I haven’t done it in awhile, but if you take a couple of 5 gallon buckets and throw some rocks/dirt in the bottom and as you clean fish (any kind) throw them in give a good poring of Manheden oil in the mixture and then freeze the whole bucket with lid re-installed. When you get to your spot have an electric drill with a 1/2" bit and put holes all over the bucket and sink it seems to work better than a mesh bag.
We’ve used an I.V. drip for top water oil dispersal.
What ever you do I would recommend some rubber gloves, cause the oil or milk tends to linger on ones hands even after a good wash and rub in lemon juice.
