Clampy, congratulations on a great fish and a great mount. Not to hijack, but there's another cool way to have a tropy record of a catch. I have a friend in Colorado that does Gyotaku prints. He applies ink directly to a fish, shading and coloring appropriately, then presses paper to it to make a relief print in actual size. Sometimes he'll do hand coloring and shading after, sometimes it's all in the application. It's really cool looking

Here's a redfish of mine that he did a few years ago, and a sheepie that I just sent him to print as well
