Here they are together at the cabin. I think they put a little to much red in the one on the right still looks good but I don't think his belly was quite that red.

Beautiful fish, glad to see them honored! Too often we act like LMB are the only fish that are worthy of trophy status.

Trophy BG - well done !

Thanks eric!

Hey Ant thanks, I can tell you this these pics don't do these fish justice!! They are large and in charge and deserved a spot on the wall. If I can do it my next one will be one of two things.

1. A RES 2.8 to 3 lbs or another BG close to 3 lbs. Ha will see, but you never know.

RC are those the actual fish that were mounted or did you go the "reproduction" route?

I have been catching a few 11-12 inch BG each year and want to get one mounted along with a big crappie but I keep hearing about reproductions.

Certainly if i caught a big enough LMB I would go the reproduction route as I know that technique is readily available for bass. BM61.

Hey bassmaster those BG are the real deal. I guess i'm old school and I don't do Reps never have.
