Custom fish replicas

For  release mount fish replicas I need the following:

1. Accurate length of fish with tail open. I suggest carrying several flexible sewing tapes in your gear.
2. Girth and/or weight of fish. I try to match profile picture as accurately as possible, more so than exact girth
3. Good color pictures (no filters) with fish filling the frame of picture. try to keep direct sunlight or shadows out of picture if possible.

For a custom one off mount of your fish:

Handling  fish with great care will ensure a quality mount in the end. My molding process pick up the most minute details in each fish reproduction . DO NOT vacuum seal your fish as it leaves bag marks which will transfer to the finished mount.

Wrap wet fish in plastic wrap trying to keep it wrinkle free, then roll in a wet towel again keeping wrinkles and bumps out. Freeze flat on cardboard or wood with a plastic bag on wood to prevent sticking. Once frozen the wet towel will act as a protective cast so to speak to protect fish from breakage.
