The Fish is Mounted

Not sure what the story is behind this fish. I heard Mommy talk about a wild time before I was born where she and maw maw and paw paw and Uncle Dave went south of the border.

Then she said something about chumming the water while fishing and Uncle Dave catching this barracuda. They had it stuffed and a couple of grand later it was "displayed" on top of maw maw's computer desk.

This summer I decided I would bring it home with me and Daddy and I worked out a plan for framing it.

Some trim, couple of coats of stain and a few nails and it looks good I think. I hung it in our den and I think I may tell everyone I caught it--at least until Uncle Dave comes to visit.
