Not a problem, throw it away

the fish too. Or just fill it full of filler,(say that 5 times fast) card the fins , gill covers and work the shape into the front of the fish.


Or...

you could do like some of us do on all our fish. Lay the skin out relaxed and measure the distance from the center of the eye hole to the junction of the tail fin. Order a crappie form this length from the supplier and mount over the manniken.
