Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Sal,

He did take all the fish measurements, photos, etc. IF he decided to have it mounted.

For now, it is stored in the freezer.

It will be a see-saw game.

So far, the fisherman is YES,

His loving wife, NO.

They live in a 5,000 sq. foot Montana-Lodge style home in the Reno area - 18' vaulted ceiling.  They have plenty of wall space.

I suspect it will be mounted, will keep you informed.

Last fall he and 5 buddies ALL HARVESTED EACH a 6X6 Elk Bull or larger- Each of them in one day in western North Dakota.  He handed me a piece of this bull Elk - Elk Rump Roast!!!!!!

Pat is a true outdoorsman.

There's nothing wrong with a few "F's" on your record....Food, Fun, Flowers, Fishing, Friends, and Fun....to name just a few !

Wow!  Nice job.  How come you only catch pan sized bait fish?   Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
