Surprise Steel
« on: September 01, 2022, 04:06:46 PM »
My best friend, wife and dad got together and had my PB steely from last Feb replica mounted for me as a surprise birthday present. Pumped to put this beauty of a buck on the wall! Paul Deangelo out of forks did the work and nailed it.

Very cool!!
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Thanks! 39.5” fish takes up a lot of real estate on the wall I’m finding out  :chuckle: need to figure out what I want to do for the backdrop as well. Thinking maybe a slab of live edge cedar or possibly a chunk of drift wood

All the calculators I’ve used online for the measurements put him in the low 20’s!

Do a diorama!  I have seen some awesome steelhead dioramas.  Would love to have one as a coffee table.  Nice fish too.

Beautiful mount!
A colored up Steehead or large rainbow make amazing mounts.

The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
