A completed rattlesnake ready to head home. Thanks to my taxidermy buddy Matt Welsh of KS for helping out on this one. Hopefully, we learned a little from each other and this customer will be happy.

My rendition of a Kentucky Spotted Bass for a client on the west coast. Thank you, to my good friend Jimmy Lawrence for providing me with an excellent blank, super similar to the client’s fish.

I frequently get asked about finishing out the backsides of my blanks for an opposite pose. Here is my 25.5 x 19.5 blank. Most of my blanks are posed in a slow S curve. The original show side is a left turn (top) and the reverse side is the right (bottom). These were done for a father and daughter who caught identical sized fish and wanted them going in opposite directions.

This is the blank from my custom line of replicas, I affectionately refer to as “Big Boy”. It is a 25.5”, 13 1/2 pound lunker. This finished example is heading to an angler in SC, this week.
