3 LB Crappie club

[papermouth scaler]

No i'm not "yet" a member but I have a buddy that told me when he catches one it's going on the wall.

I believe a duplicate can be made from a photo...nevertheless my comment is if has a mounted crappie 3lbs+ (real or fake)
Would you mind posting a photo I would really like to see how it turned out.
Thanks in advance

Here is my replica of my 3 lb 2oz crappie that I caught last year. I'm sure one can be made from a picture but length and girth information helps.

Roy, did you lose your hat? I have some pictures of a few but I put them back, wife says I am crazy, no arguement ,LOL. She caught a 2 and 3/4 lb that I talk her into putting back after she went to Bobcats and weigh it,she didn't want to put it back,but I told her it was too big to eat and too little to mount, LOL. wasn;t I slick,hope she do not read this

2.5 is the closest I've come to joining the club.

I'm pushing 70 real hard and have only caught one that went 3lb 5oz in all that time. I'm not into mounts and since it died by time I got it to legal scales, it got et. And I agree, smaller ones are better eatin.

Here is one from Arkabutla that went 3#6oz

Hey Roy who mounted that fish for you? It looks very nice.

Here is mine, 3 pounds, 6 oz. caught at Santee in 1988. Mounted by Hugh Crittenden, Still looks like it just jumped out of the water. I smile every time I look at at it. If I caught another it would be released. I went with the fish biologist and game wardens on the shock boat once and held a 20 inch, four pound plus crappie in my hands. It was released and I've fished that hole many times to no avail.

I got my replica from Bubba Denton at Fish Art Taxidermy, a local well know guy here in VA who does only fish and has been doing them a long time. He is a super nice guy who really pays attention to the small details. I think my fish actually looks better than the picture shows. I provided Bubba with a picture of my fish as well as it's length and girth and we discussed everything else I wanted or did not want to see on the fish. He was able to deliver my fish in 6 weeks which I think is great, he said he could do a skin mount in about the same time as well. I highly recommend his work. His number is 1-804-262-1153. Give him a call, you won't be disappointed.
