Thanks. I felt ok about it at 6 months. Not feeling so good now. How big was that King? Keep it in a chest freezer?
you should be ok hope it works out. as soon as it gets done you will catch a bigger one anyway
Good info wax. Are there different ways this is done? Options??? Or does every guy do it basically the same. First time I've seriously ever thought of mounting something.
As for diff ways it is done....That I don't know...All I know is they are not cheap...from 9-12 bucks an inch and that does not include the driftwood. I know there are replicas which are just painted froms to match length and girth of your fish and there are real mounts which use the fins, skins, tails, head...basically everything but the eyeballs. I am sure each have their own ways of doing it, but it is really an art to see the fish in the different stages and then how good it looks at the end. I would ask whoever you are thinking of doing it to kind of explain the process, then call around to others and do the same. It all describe the process the same then you can choose whichever has the best reputation or who fits your budget. For options, I was given several choices as to how my son wanted the fish shaped (sliightly curved, mouth open/closed, tilted up/down), if we wanted it on driftwood, or in a scenery mount (which has sand,, rocks, gravel weeds, other small fish, etc.). We chose the driftwood, as the scenery mount was several hundred more.
