*Camo_Girl* Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Has anyone ever mounted a fish? Pictures would be cool to see, too. -CG:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrow32 Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Never have. My uncle has one done of a huge rainbow he caught there a few years ago. I'll try and get a picture of it here sometime this week if I'm over that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I have two mounts, a 9lb 5oz northern pike I caught through the ice when I was 5 years old, and a 5lb smallmouth bass. My brother has a 13lb northern on the wall too. Next time i'm up at the lake I'll try and remember to take pics of them for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Interestingly enough, I never have either. I've caught dozens of "trophy" sized bass, but I've never kept one to mount. In fact, every one of the larger bass I've caught has been released alive and healthy. I suppose I could have a (or several) fiberglass reproductions done from pictures. Of course, if I could just get a bass over the 13 lb mark, I could get a free reproduction from the State of Texas by donating the fish to their breeding program.

Dubie Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Never did. Thought of having a few replica's done from time to time, but most fish I catch are either released or eaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I have only caught one fish that I thought was worthy for the wall. It was a 10 pound rainbow trout and it was beautiful. Unfortunately I was in college and I could not afford it at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimT Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 I have three on the wall. An 18" brown trout, a 5lb lm bass and a 7.2lb lm bass. They look nice. Hope to add a landlocked salmon some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
