Good question. Take several shots at a couple different angles to try and avoid the reflection of the sun on the side of the fish. If it's a bass or trout, get a measurement of length from the tip of the lower jaw to the tip of the tail. For the girth measurement, put a flexible measuring tape or string around the fattest part of the fish. If possible, try to measure and photograph the fish on a wet towel and get it back into the water quickly. Then contact me or a good taxidermist that specializes in fish replicas.
I wanna do this to my first bass I've ever caught. So badly now that I saw this. But I didn't take measurements or weigh it. But I think I can recreate the pic with one of your old molds or Finnished bass you may have laying around. How much sir? I been fishing fresh water for 4 weeks now. And three weeks ago I caught this at legg lake.
Awesome work Fishmounter... I will need one of those one day.. You will be the man for the job..
