What all do you guys have mounted?
I only have this 24" speckled trout so far. It is quite detailed and realistic for a replica mount. Not my biggest (26" so far), but it was really my second saltwater fish caught and 1st kayak fish. Caught it in a small bay off Dauphin Island, AL. Took me for a sleigh ride in my yak for around 5 min as I caught him on 10lb mono with a bass rod. Great experience for me which is really what it's all about! Hopefully I can add a turkey tail fan soon and one day, God permitting, a big buck

This bass is 25 inches and my first 7 pounder..I was on my way to church in 1983 when I thought ..what the heck..I'll make a few cast off the shoreline.I cast a 7 inch Wood worm out as far as I could...ti ti ti WHAM!!! fish on.. I was using 10 pound Trine on a cheap Diawa spinning outfit. I got her stuck in 3 foot of water in the gator/snake infested weeds. I took off my shoes and waded in there...following the line until I hit her mouth..and her she is.LOL

Nice! and it seems you have caught bigger than her now right? Whats your biggest bass? These fish stories never get old and never cease to make me want to drive immediately to water and fish!

My hunting is alot like some of you alls fishing.I just don't have a place to hunt..One nice fellow{ from HNI} invited me to the Ozarks in Missouri in 2005..I didn't know him from Adam.We had one thing in common ..we were both Christians..but he was of a church that separated both of us..we had very little doctrinal issues in common.yet..I was bound and determined to make the 16.5 hour drive...
WE HIT IT OFF..we were buds..I went to church with him..I stayed for 5 days...we had waleye , wild turkey lots of deer and he made me feel special.He put me in a tree and I shot the only buck that week in 30 minutes..a small 8 point rack on a 130 pound body..I was tickled..He also gave me another deer and turkey from his freezer...will post my mount in a few minutes...The picture is of me and Strut..he no longer comes on here...and the mount..not a big deer but my best..{ -;

I have a European Skull mount of an American Bison that I shot a few years ago, and a white tail deer that was the first, and largest, mature buck. I can't count the heads on the wall at the office here where I work (I work for my father in law), but these are a few:
Black Wildebeast
Blue Wildebeast
American Bison Shoulder Mount
Amierican Bison Euro Mounts
Multiple Axis Deer
Multiple Mule Deer
Multiple Fallow Deer
Multiple Pronghorn
Multiple Sitka
Multiple Elk
Multiple African Black Buck
Turkey
Hog
Audad
and a set of cow horns, haha
I'll see if I can get a few pictures of them up a little later today
