Unfortunately no picture. I was pretty much flat broke working underground construction in 1986 and did not own a camera, and was considering cleaning this fish until the country butcher shop (in Payneville, KY) I took it to have weighed, persuaded me to have it mounted. I was convinced the fish would have been much easier to swallow, but got it mounted anyway and best I can recall the mount cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $65 - $85.00.

I appreciate you looking though.
