These fish are now with Tim Overbaugh.....Going to be exciting early next year when he reveals his work.......Will add alot of credibility to the flier species!

Thanks for all the nice compliments on these fish....really looking forward to see how they look when the replicas come out.....We'll catch some more in the coming months but it will slow compared to the Bluegill and Warmouth bite....I can't complain, I've caught the best Fliers of my life in the last month and I'm thankful for that opportunity....

Thanks folks.........Vince, Featured member Tim Overbaugh does some of the best panfish taxidermy I've ever seen including the coppernose used for wallpaper on this site and the world record shellcracker....Check out his pictures one day when you have some free time.....
