Always wonder if these hawgs result from gene mutation causing abnormal growth or mental/instinct problems causing the fish to stay in the ocean way beyond normal. If it's just an abundance of food then great; otherwise removing them from the gene pool may be best. Just an alternate thought.  ???

Will look great on buddies wall.I have a 30pd Tyee on my wall and it makes a great conversation pc when guests visit,they always want to know the story behind the fish.When im old and can no longer fish i will be able to look up on my walls and smile about the "THE GOOD OLD DAYS".Love the taxidermy!

Nowadays you can have better replicas made that are longer-lasting with a few measurements and a photo - no need for the carcass of the fish.

But then u dont get the meat! My next mount being made now is a fiberglass mount! Still kept the carcass even though its a fibreglass mount for the meat.I agree though my taxidermist has told me the fibreglass mounts are superoir to a skin mount, but a properly done skin mount will last a lifetime. The choice is yours to make.

I'm curious .Is the fish next to the Bikini a Kenai fish,always wanted to try that flow.Also my opinion is if you can eat a big fish go ahead and kill it, but if your just going to fill your freezer don't.I've never been a big fan of giving away fish cause you got too many in the freezer,just sayen is all 8)
