Looks great! Is it a skin mount or replica? You should also throw up some pictures when you caught it to compare to

[Buck Krazy]

Just like to make a correction to my last reply. Found out that advantage and advance sound closly the same. So no im not pd at advantage taxidermy, would be advance taxidermy in toronto who has had my burbot for 2 years now. lol.. Sorry for the mistake.
And looks like advantage does some NICE work. maybe our next world record fish will be heading your way. lol.:sHa_shakeshout:

Nice fish for sure. Just wondering what people know about regular mounts versus graphite replica mounts. I had some lakers done when I was young and the fins were brittle and broke off. A buddy had a graphite mount that was way stronger.

Not sure which way I would go.

[Mutter87]

Graphite replica mounts are the way to go, c&r ensures a trophy fishery for all.

[Willowtrail]

Thanks for all the positive replies everyone. I will get him tomorrow or soon. I will get some more pics and give some more info. Can't wait to bring him home

Cool

I love the mounts done museum style with a realistic pose...walleye chasing small perch....pike ambushing a minnow etc.

[dvers749]

thats pretty awesome, i wanna get this guy made into one.... i didnt have time to measure it but it was massive, must have had a weight of more then anything i have seen before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piIomvCAa_c :sHa_shakeshout:
