Cool, mrdux, so you're a taxidermist. Do you mount quite a few redear out of those lakes then? I've been looking for a mountable redear for a few years now and it's been quite the pricey challenge. My best up here in Indiana has been a 1.6oz redear that was a dandy. I've always wanted the 2lber for mounting purposes but would probably mount one that went 1.121b's or better.
