    Gary, Why did you only get the fish mounted that you wife landed ? Inquiring minds would like to know. Roger C.

    They don't grow that big here in Canada, a 5lb+ is considered a trophy especially as you go further north away from the most southern waters they inhabit in the provinces that have them. I have caught several on either side of the the 5lb line but only ever had one mounted, a 19.5" replica (no weight taken) I caught while ice fishing walleye. Bass season was closed hence the replica. Actually all my mounts are replicas of fish I caught and released. With it is my pb smallmouth. a 21" c&r that weighed 5lb-3oz.....
