    You might want to consider having a fibreglass reproduction made instead. A lot of oily fish like trout and salmon don't make great skin mounts simply because there is no way to get absolutely all of the oil out of the skin and it eventually bleeds through the paint. Just a thought.

    Don't even think of going there.
    A bit slow is the understatement of the year.
    I gave him stuff in 2001 and I'm still waiting!
    How slow is that!:mad:

    Try the guy in Kilnaleck, Cavan. He's good, reasonable and quick.
