I hope Mrs. Daddy isn't making you relegate this beaut to the wall it's currently mounted! This goes over the couch in the family room or above the mantle.

I had one mounted back in 1990 , it was 42 inches long and 32 lbs . It hung over the fireplace for years. My kids use to say the fish was in more family pictures then the family was. I finally bought a condo at the lake when i retired 3 years ago. So needless to say i took him home,he’s hanging there now.

Nice mount and definitely a good fish. Always a shame when you can't save one, but now it lives on -
