Hello friends, Polynesiac, Will, Amate and Jon, appreciate the kind remarks.

Poly--the fish is supposed to be a northern pike, one of the more common species up
here in the northwoods. I don't do much fishing anymore but I snagged more than my share
of northern in my youth. The fish is carved from a single basswood slab...around 5 inches
thick. The fins are now attached and I'm just waiting for a pair of eyes from a
taxidermy supplier.

Have a great weekend everyone.
