Looking for Specimens

by cub8ter , Posted to Fishing Buddy on 11/17/2010 11:32 PM \| "Quote" \| "Quick Reply" \|
cub8ter Joined: 11/17/2010 Location: FL	I'm trying to acquire some popular fish specimens for skeletal articulations. I've done several over the years (www.helterskeletons.com), but would really like to get feedback from different regions. Basically I want to know what fish people get excited about going after and how I can get some.

doublebarrelsaloon Joined: 04/22/2009 Location: MT	When I first clicked I thought "oh great someone else trying to sell crap on here." But now that I looked at you site those are really cool! Yep a pike would look awesome, and paddlefish as well. I wonder how a ling would turn out?
	I dont go around guessing cup sizes either I just know a nice rack when I see one.

	Without a doubt, coming out into nature is one of the neatest things there is to do, but you also have to be careful. That’s why I always try to pack the heat — try to pack a gun. Just a little bit — pack some heat. Now this isn’t too — this isn’t much of a big boy, I don’t want to kill the animal, but I do want to warn it, and say “hey, I think you’re pretty neat, but I respect your distance.” There’s bears out here, there’s mountain cougars, and biting goats.
