release mounts

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Now there’s a reason for release mounts I have never quite considered before. Actually it gives a whole new meaning to the word.

P.S. -

Ken (of Ken & Jo) on this board had a nice replica mount made recently (wally) and I believe TrophyMuskie did, too. Maybe they can help you.

Not sure of locals, though...

Outside of Barrie I am not sure...But you have the measurements and I am sure a taxadermist will make you a replica (Which will last you longer and look better!!!)For only a few $ more.A pic is better for the artist to do his work too!

Look around,and if not;I will contact a freind who will do it for you here in Ottawa.

Pikeie, welcome. So you ate the fish. My question is what did you serve it with....a cabernet sauvignon or a dry Chardonnay :?: :lol: :wink:

Heres a little something that may be of interest to you and others :P
