The Week in Fish Pictures~ Year 2# Week#51

A great big hello from Hinsdale New Hampshire! Almost 2 years!!!! Each and every week we all come out and drop by to read look or share or gifts with each other! What a fun time it is for me to check in every week and see the outstanding work you all do! I think if you look at your own work you would agree as I do that in some way how ever little or big the work we do has gotten better due to this Artistic intervention rendezvous each week for the past 2 years!

This past week fish work is nothing short of some of the very best I have seen here yet! Way toooooo many cool fish!!!!!! It does take so much talent and courage to share with each other however the one thing we all take seriously here is that we don’t judge or slam each other or the work we share. This is what makes this string so very special to me and I hope for you as well!

It is a wonderful place where we can come and share our work and be enjoyed for the efforts we make including me!

I want to thank all of the great contributors who really show not only great talent and work but rather give such inspiration to all of us!
A great week Fishheads!!!!!
 
There was some really inspirational fish work last week I hope you all had a great week my friends and family of Fishheads!!! Let's start off with some Big time thanks to our great contributors this past week!!

Here's a big hats off to the contributors who shared their talents! Layne Luna, Dave Campbell, Josh Knuth, Mike “Birthday Boy” Kroessig, Jeff Sonner,  JTM, Marty S, Doug Petrouseek, RDA, Just Fish, Denny, Don Patton, Scrubby, J Guid, Kerby Ross, Dave”UFD” Campbell, Brad Jones,  never least G Bruch!!!!

From beginner's to the best in the world we all join in every week in a critique free and hassle free string with nothing more then great artist and inspiring fish taxidermist and carves get together to share with one another their praise and inspiration of good will and friendship to one another.

I thought I would start the week with a wonderfully gifted Taxidermist and a great person to have had the privilege to have had the opportunity to work with for the past 10 days. Mr. Eddie “fast Eddie” Casas of Manvel, Texas! Eddie spent the past 10 day with us here at Anglers Artistry and did some great fish work. Eddie tackled the challenge of the 360 Bass covering molding and casting, custom eyes from scratch and acrylic to a beautiful brown and a way cool Spotted Speckle trout! Eddie made me laugh so much and we shared a great meal or tow while getting in on some hard core fish work! Here are a few pictures of Eddie’s work he did with direction only while here for 10 days! Great work Eddie!!!!!

I hopefully will be checking in during the week I have a date with destiny so Cheers and here’s to more great fish!



So here goes!

I hope you enjoy the week!
So with out further ado let's get week #51 under way.

So here we go and here is to a great week in fish pictures!!!! #51! Enjoy!

My Best!

Mr. Eddie Casas Spotted Speckle Trout!!! Very nice fish hard to photograph will all the subtle shimmer effects. Totally hand made eye no glass hand made 100%!

Here is Eddie and his Jigggggy  fish work! Eddie is missing his paired fin as he will put them on once he is home and has the pedestal skin mount on his base work he has in mind!

Here is another look at Eddies Bass!

Here is a Canadian Walleye I did for a buddy.  So ignore his picture of the house and tree in the background.
