1046.0. "5 Pound Smallie" by MPGS::SALVIF () Wed Mar 22 1989 08:57
          Just a question to those of you that might have had some Bass
          mounted. 
          Last May, my partner and I took a break form the Winni Derby
          and decided to fish for some Smallies at Squam Lake, I was
          Lucky enough to get a 5 lb. Smallie, I decided to have it 
          mounted, unfortunately the thing is still in my freezer, its
          was wrapped in newspaper then it was put in a plastic bag to
          be frozen, does anyone know if its still ok to be mounted??
          I guess i'm concerned about freezer burn, and all the nasty
          things that could happen to anything left in a freezer for such
          a long time. I hope its not too late, I dont know when the next
          time will be for such a nice Smallie.
    
    
          Thanks a lot,
    
          Frank

    A friend of mine had his 27Lb salmon mounted after 4 months in the
    freezer and it came out excellent. He had Bass Pro do it and I was
    impressed with the way it looked.

| 1046.3 | bps is a bargain | ABACUS::MACINTYRE | In search of the Largemouth Bass... | Wed Mar 22 1989 18:47 | 8 | 
|  |     I also know someone who had a fish in the freezer for a long time
    (over a year I think) and it came out ok.
    
    Try a DIR/KEY=TAXIDERMY
    
    Definitely give Bass Pro Shops' Wild Life Creations a thought.

| 1046.4 | Massabesic Circle | ROBOAT::HEBERT | Captain Bligh | Fri Mar 24 1989 08:54 | 7 | 
|  | My fishing buddy had his 8-1/4# bucketmouth mounted at the place on Massabesic
Circle in Manchester. Except for the fact that I should have caught it,
it looks real good. Their number is 603-625-9958.
I taught him everything he knows...
