FishNg1 Three Time Spawner Registered: 03/08/99 Posts: 1585 Loc: Gig Harbor, WA , USA	Luke from Blackwater Trading Co. did a superb job on my King and even got it done early. It was not supposed to even be started until August, but I got the call to pick it up on Sunday. These pictures do not do give you a real feel for the detail and size, it looks great in my Den. (For those that don't know, this fish was caught last summer at Westport.) I would highly recommend Luke to do your replica.

FishinClinician Alevin Registered: 05/19/04 Posts: 18 Loc: Vancouver, WA	Steve- That is one hog of a fish, and it looks almost as real as the original photo. A quality replica for sure. That picture for you avatar looks familiar, oh I remember, fishnphysician posted it on Ifish and said it was HIS westport fish. $\:D$ Quality fish, and quality mount man! _________________________ AKA The Overfishin' Condition

Coho River Nutrients Registered: 03/09/99 Posts: 2566 Loc: Muk	Luke Filmer is the man to go to. I just picked up my 28lb Steelhead and saw your king in the works. What a great guy to work with. It is worth the trip once he has your information as you will discuss mount options--and to see what the process is for a mount is incredible-He is gifted. I see that fish on the wall and get goose bumps reliving the catch, its truelly beautiful, and Im very happy-unless I catch a 30. Then I will see how good he is at "splicing". http://www.blackwatertrading.com/
