Hey Guys,

Caught this Brown last spring in Maine. The Taxidermist called and said it was ready for pick up!  :)

Very nice Keith...make sure it's up higher than the boy...
when chuck norris played golf for money, chuck marked down a hole in zero every time, the golf pro said, "chuck: you can't score zero on a hole." Chuck norris turned towards the man and said, "I'm chuck norris, the man proceeded to pour gas over his body and set himself on fire because that would be less painful than getting roundhouse kicked by chuck norris....chuck norris roundhouse kicked him in the face anyways

Thanks Guys!

The locals at the lake I was fishing practice catch and release so after a couple measurements and a photo, the fish was released.
I went with a reproduction mount and he did a great job with it! The fish was 24" long and in the 6lb range.

Ice Wanderer - The taxidermist I use has a table mount display of a rainbow in his shop. I really liked the idea, so Ive had 4 table mounts done by him. (2 rainbows, a Brookie, and the Brown) Ive also had him do a few wall mounts for me with some bigger fish (Brood-stock Salmon, King Salmon, and Steelhead)

Great repro!

Here ya go Sinnian, side by side comparison. I told the taxidermist I wanted him to brighten up the colors a bit as I don't care for a white belly on the mount. I really like the job he did.
