    I'm curious if any of you have attached a fiberglass fish to a vehicle? I've been contemplating putting something on my pickup truck but haven't yet. If you have, how did it work and how did you do it?
    thanks, jerry

    Ive never done it but i would be careful on what location on the vehicle and what size fish.....wind can be an enemy when things get big. Why not place a trout on the hood (open mouth) and it could catch bugs. lol
    How about a half replica on each door. Its the back of the vehicle though, that gets all the attention at red lights etc. dont forget your tel. # Sorry i could not be of more help with the actual attatchment.

    I've seen a european mount deer skull inside a pickup on the back window and also a largemouth bass on the back window of another. I have yet to see a mount as a hood ornament but there is a first time for everything. ;)

    but what if the vehicle was a 1956 ford all painted up purdy with antique taxi sign on each door and the fish on the tailgate.....would it still be redneck. 8)

    Years ago Dennis Arp had a rainbow mounted as a hood ornament.

    That coyote belongs to Mike's Mounts outside of Mobile Al.

    He told me he picks up a lot of business with the yote hanging of his tailgate. He also gets a lot of people driving up beside him in a frantic hollering that his dog is about to fall off. LOL
