Thank you SYG for wearing it. You know first hand the sorrow and pain not having it on can cause. And it only takes an instant.

Guys, I'm here to tell ya, i was probably one of the last to finally give into the seatbelt
thing (probably $150.00 fine was one reason and commin onto accident on I-95 about
yr ago, car flipped, all were thrown out..(not a pretty site when your one of first on
scene)
The situation the past couple weeks brought to light another thing - i have carried
my self-pfd for probably 5 yrs and maybe had it on 1 -2 times because of tournament or
game warden in area........I now where it any time i step into that boat whether riding, stopped, setting up for fishing, it never comes off...Please, all take the time
to get a good pfd and than take it out of bag, box, case and show it off and as a
memory to Nate, it will save your life. Twice in past 2 yrs have been tossed from
boat during turnament with wakes from other sightseerers getting to close. Both times i had a partner on board who handle things and helped get me back on board.
Don't push your luck.....................
"This is not soap box preaching, i don't want to write another memorial to someone
i got to know and like real well.

Huntinslabs,
thanks for advice on checking out Taxidermist web sites........

will look into these..............

Have appointment sat am to meet man locally ...presently ladies are in big zip lock
bags in freezer

The epics on his website do not do justice to his work. He has a bunch of crazy stuff on his website he creates. But look at some of his clients, museums, smithsonians, sea world etc. Etc. Take a ride over and see his stuff in person. It is very good.

Don't know it i have that deep enough pockets.

Its like racin, "speed costs, how much to you want to spend"

I don't know his fish pricing, but he was in the same cost range when I had my turkey mounted.

thanks for update............will look into further.
