You can either be the type of person that spends a saturday watching Dr. Phil, eating tofu in your bachelor appartment, or you can be the type that goes fishing.... Your call....The bass are biting...

Fishing isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more important than that!

I live with FEAR everyday, and sometimes she lets me go fishing!

  I will  agree with that nice looking mount.
I fish for those "stupid fish" BASS. Largemouth Smallmouth Stripers, and even Rock bass.

there is a claw on the one rock, but it was expensive enough I didn't need the extra 30 buck or more I can't remember. Of course I paid too much for it when I thought I had some money when I didn't...   It was a skin mount but the guy does a reproduction of the fins and tail and head so it will never shrink.  Gary Bruchs fish taxidermy in Duncannon, PA do it. Awesome job but EXPENSIVE but he is a national champion... I only got one side painted and he charged 20 an inch... both sides would have been 30 an inch
