Another beautiful mount by our sponsor DZTaxidermy!

[Gone Fishing]

My camera is a piece of crap and doesn’t do this any justice at all but I wanted to try to show off our latest mount done by Dan. These are all LSC Perch ranging from 13 ¾ to 14 ½ inches which were caught during the 2004 season. As usual, Gone Fishing Jr got the big one of the bunch. If you guys have a fish you want to get mounted, DZ is fast, reasonable and very good at what he does. Here's a pic:

Great Perch. No offense, but I think your right, it seems to me that the picture doesn't do those Perch any justice. They look faded in the picture, their all uniform, so that would put the fault on the camera, or the quality of the scanner or whatever. I wish I could see those bad boys in person, that looks like that would be a nice group of jumbo's.:) Congrats guys!

[Gone Fishing]

Thanks guys. The mount really does look sweet. Maybe Dan took a decent picture before I picked it up. I know he has a much better camera. Dan..................?

[salmonslammer]

Impressive!!! One of these days I'll have some perch worthy of the wall!!

[Ed Stringer]

Very Nice John !!!! good choose on the arrangement.

[trouttime]

John,
That looks awesome!! tell Jr. the next time he is hacking away at me during Whirlyball he is more than welcome to rub some of that good fishing luck on me ;)

Dan, that looks great, when I get my wall mounter :rolleyes: I will be sure to give you a call!!

[slowpoke]

I like those shiners in the mount also.

[hunting man]

I just said "WOW" when I looked at the perch mount. Very nice choice.

[mich buckmaster]

I like it A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[William H Bonney]

Very nice, hard to believe none of those had huge bellies or did you purposely not get any FAT ones mounted?

[Gone Fishing]

Well, a couple of the fish were caught in the Spring (post spawn) and the rest were caught in the Fall (Oct/Nov) before they really start to buldge. If you could see them in person, I'd think you would say they were good size Perch. :)

Well here is the only photo I have and it is not the best either. I usually take a photo in my shop where I have a special area set up for taking photos with good lighting.

Thanks for the compliments. Thanks for the business John. :)

I ain't saying those aren't good sized,LMAO ;) . I was just trying to get some input for "my" stringer mount. I only fish in the winter so all big ones I catch are the ones that look border-line "disgusting", I'm sure you know what I mean.LOL I got one this winter that I had to use a 2 liter bottle in the pic to compare it to. Only problem is, I had no film in the camera, and had to use my camera-phone, I'm gonna have to invest in a data cable to get it on my computer so you guys can see this thing.

I'm starting to reconsider how i want to mount the 4 hawgs i have in the freezer. I am waiting for the 5th to make a stringer mount, kidda thought that was nice, but now i see different stuff, it makes you think. Nice job John, and the taxidermist.
