Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Tim Overbaugh and his taxidermy might be the best in the U.S.

I've dedicated the entire front page of BigBluegill to our very kind, generous and talented friend, Tim Overbaugh.

 

Big Bluegill is blessed to have a number of very talented taxidermists that frequent the site.  There are also dozens of folks who are extremely talented in creating videos, catching fish, taking photos, etc.

 

But Tim Overbaugh's work is unparalleled. 

 

Tim Overbaugh has made the very generous offer that if members of Big Bluegill provide him with trophy fish specimens, he will create a unique and amazing replica.  Tim, in turn, then uses this replica to encourage other fishermen to release their catch so he can create these true masterpieces.

 

Thanks to Tim Overbaugh for what you've done for me, and for this site.

Being I'm a catch and release guy 95% of the time, Tim and his incredible ability is always on the fore front of my mind when I'm fishing. His work is jaw dropping! I am thankful to him for sharing his talents with us! Thanks Tim!
