I get to do a few Hybrids every year due to a reservoir in our area has them. Fun fish to do!! Somewhat of a challenge. You certainly captured the true look of the Stripers. Beautiful job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of six Brown Trout skin mounts in a group that a client sent to be re-furbished.
He wanted the spot size to be smaller, less round and more various. He requested that the coloration be similar to the Western NY spawning males that are on my website.
My attempt makes the 3rd time that the client has had these mounts painted by different taxidermists.
Not too bad for a "Pour and Pull" fake fish guy eh?

[AnglingArtisan]

Awesome SeaTrout Ollie

[Joey Arender]

I think he found what he wanted Rich Nice job on that Brown.

Ollie very nice as well.

[Monty Artrip]

 Major improvement, Rich. I don't think he will them painted again, and nice anatomical improvements. Great striper!

[Randy Budzynski]

Nice nice fish so far. Seems the theme is Browns so far and will continue with a few I just finished. I don't get many Browns to mount and ended up doing 12 this year. Here are 5 I just finished.
