Posted on MFF and IS.
Is there any fish Taxidermists, (Pro or Amateur), here at MMF? I have a question that maybe you can answer?
I had decided to start mounting my own fish to save $$ and have some fun! I did some fish work before, but rather than go into detail as to my previous replica "Franken-fishes", I will leave it as THIS TIME I'm gonna do it correctly!
Question is: I have a pike that has two gashes down both sides of the fish. scales 2 deep and 5-9 rows high are missing. My option that comes to mind is to replace the scales with epoxy compound and reshape using the appropriate tools? Am I correct?
Thanks! Barleydog
