I finally finished the crappie mounts for my dad and uncle. We took a guided trip out of Okeechobee last March and caught some nice ones. The biggest was 14 inches and 1.7 pounds. I made a pair of reproduction mounts and plan to give them each one when they come visit me from "up north" in a few weeks!
Very nice of you to do that for them. Crappie sure make pretty mounts!
Wow, you are a real cool dude to do something like that. I think they'll absolutely love it!
Something else....wow!!
Those look nice :highfive
Thanks all. They are both getting up there in years and I don't know how long they'll be around to enjoy. They took me fishing when I was just a pup and I hope they like their presents! It was the very least I could do for them.
They do look good.
nice job
Thoughtful nice job
Very nice looking mounts! :yikes:yikes
Well, Uncle Bill is headed back home to Jacksonville today, so we all went to dinner last night to celebrate. Then I surprised my parents and uncle with their new mounts! From the looks on their faces I would say they like them.
Mom and dad will still be in town for another week, then they are headed back to St. Louis. Hopefully I will get dad back out on the lake for at least one more trip before they leave.
